Hi,

Hi Emily-

I am not a normal recipe poster BUT this one I have for you, and it is super easy...

4-8 boneless, skinless chicken breast (depending on how many you want to feed)
1 to 2 can(s) of chicken broth (I use low sodium) 
1 to 2 packets of dry taco seasoning such as McCormick's

Sorry the quantities are exact, it all depends on how many people and how flavorful you want it to be.

Put in crock pot on low for 6-8 hours, I have a crock pot that I can pre-set and it allows me to cook on low for 5 hours and then set to warm until I get home.

When you get home from work, you will be able to just pull the chicken apart with a fork. I use this meat for taco salads, add sour cream, cheese and chilies wrap in low carb tortillas for yummy enchiladas...It also makes a great chicken salad, gives it a small kick. I know you could also switch up the spices (say basil and bay leaf) and make chicken with low carb pasta (a take on my wonderful mother's chicken noodles a bit more fattening favorite of mine). Sky's the limit.  

I have made this for large parties of "make your own tacos" and for small groups of friends.

Happy crock potting

All of these start the same:  place 1/2 cup water in bottom of crockpot and then the chicken.  Next pick one of these to top the chicken:
1.  1 cup salsa, 1 cup sour cream
2.  1 small can chili verdi (green chilis)
3.  1 chopped onion, three chopped tomatoes, 2 tbs curry powder
4.  1/2 jar sugar free apricot jam and red peper flakes to taste(I use 1/2 tsp)
5.  1 can cream of celery soup and 1/2 bag baby carrots
6.  1 jar alfredo sauce, 4 chopped green onions
7.  1 jar spagetthi sauce and 1 cup shredded cheese
Mix everything up and cook 6-10 hours on low.  Enjoy

Thank you so much you guys.  I will definitely try these.

I'm obsessed with my crockpot - being pregnant and working full time - the last thing I want to do is come home and cook a gourmet dinner. Most of the time it comes out like one anyway. My favorite lately has been chicken smothered in cream of mushroom soup. I add some fresh mushrooms, a packet of onion soup mix, and some gravy master. Let it cook on low all day. I usually give it to the mister over rice. But it's fine the way it is for me, once in awhile I'll add some rice to mine too. It's really good.

whole chicken (I remove as much skin as poss...) dump a lite bbq sauce on it about 3/4 of a bottle... cook on low all day... pull chicken off bones put back into crock pot add the rest of the sauce and I add a little garlic powder, black pepper and cumin... serve on rice... sketti squash, low carb tortilla... all alone... yummy
