Such an easy dinner! Just throw everything in the slow cooker!

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 T taco seasoning

1 cup diced canned tomatoes

1/2 onion, chopped

1 cup salsa (I used homemade)

  1. Place the chicken in a slow cooker. Sprinkle the taco seasoning liberally over the top, then layer the tomatoes, onions and salsa over everything. Pour 1/2 cup water over the mixture; set on low and cook for 6 to 8 hours.
  2. When ready to serve, shred the chicken with two forks and serve with cheese and tortillas. Olé!

Sounds good. We took our dogs to work as therapy dogs in Sterling Heights, went to the dog park, and then came home and ate bowls of cereal.

Thanks - that looks wonderful. Tonight it's Mexican takeout. My husband loves me. Well, plus he was meeting with the submarine veterans at that same restaurant.

Sounds so good. I might try this. Super simple and easy. We are having Chinese takeout. This is a treat for us because we have not had a meal out in a while.

And I haven't had Chinese in forever! It sounds so good!

Great crock pot fare ! What if you threw in some thighs ?
☃ Shannon K. Wendt May 20, 2012, 8:54am UTC
Those would work too.

That looks excellent. We had Skillet Pasta (see my post tonight).

This is great. I slow cooked some short ribs for tomorrows Sunday dinner. I'll let you know how they were.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt May 20, 2012, 8:54am UTC
We were just talking about short ribs here. They are unfortunately hard to find in this area.

Thats easy enough and looks good, thanks...
Heidi S. May 19, 2012, 11:40pm UTC
That sounds like something I could handle - and I bet it is good!
Marilyn S. May 20, 2012, 12:02am UTC
Sounds like a good & easy recipe. Why isn't the meat and cheese inside the tortilla? Then it would be easy to pick up and eat.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt May 20, 2012, 8:55am UTC
After the photo I stuffed the tortilla full!
