Food Love - Easy Chicken Tacos

 

This is one of the easiest meals that I make. All you need is a crockpot and a few ingredients! This recipes makes about 4 servings.

What you'll need:

- Sliced Pepper & Yellow Onion: 1 of each. I use a green pepper but I'm sure that others will work great. I like them sliced in this recipe but you can definitely dice them. If you really want to save time then buy a bag of frozen diced peppers and onions!

- Rotel: 1 Can

- Cheese: 1/2 block of velveeta (if I have it on hand) - if not I use whatever cheese I have in the fridge. Cheddar or Colby Jack works just as well!

- Chicken Tenderloins: 4 - 6 (I put them in frozen)

- Taco Seasoning: Sprinkle a little on top of everything else. My mom gave me an awesome homemade recipe! See it here: Homemade Taco Seasoning

I put everything in the crockpot in that order and let it cook on low for 3 and 1/2 hours. Stirring occasionally. The chicken should break apart/shred easily.

Other ingredients needed (if preferred):
- Tortillas or taco shells
- Sour Cream
- Shredded Cheese
- Shredded Lettuce
