Equipment

Ingredients

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (mine were frozen)
16 ounces salsa 1 jar
1.25 ounces taco seasoning 1 packet
12 taco shells or flour tortillas

Toppings

1 cup guacamole
2 cups shredded lettuce
1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 tomatoes diced
6 ounces sliced olives 1 can
1 cup sour cream

Instructions

Spray your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray for easy clean-up. Place chicken in the bottom, pour salsa on top, and sprinkle with taco seasoning.
Cook on high for 4 to 6 hours or on low for 6 to 8 hours.
When chicken is done cooking, it will shred easily when stirred with a fork.
Place the chicken on crunchy taco shells or flour tortillas.
Top with guacamole, lettuce, shredded cheese, tomatoes, olives, sour cream, and any other taco toppings you love.

Notes

You could also use the chicken for for enchiladas, nachos, tostadas, quesadillas, etc.

To turn this into a freezer meal:

Place chicken, salsa, and taco seasoning in a gallon-sized freezer bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible and seal bag closed. Place freezer bag into freezer and it will last 60-90 days. When ready to use, spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray and dump ingredients from bag into slow cooker. Place the lid on top and cook on LOW heat for 5-6 hours or until meat is completely cooked through (some slow cookers may take longer). Follow the rest of the directions as written.
