Healthy Chicken Tacos for the Crock Pot
19
I also love “dump and cook” chicken crock pot recipes. “Dump and cook” is my affectionate term for crock pot recipes that require very little preparation but still produce tasty results. This recipe for chicken tacos meets both requirements. As an added bonus, it eliminates the high sodium levels and mystery ingredients found in taco seasoning packets making them a healthy dinner choice.
