One of my new favorites is chicken soft tacos (family eats the tortilla, I just eat the stuffing). I have a big family, so feel free to change this to suit your family size.
Its so easy.

1 pkg. low sodium taco seasoning.
lettuce
shredded lowfat cheddar
lowfat sour cream

Place chicken breasts in crock pot, pour taco seasoning over the top. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. When you take them out, shred it up. Fill tortillas w/chicken and whatever toppings you want. Yum.
