Crockpot Chicken Tacos

Some nights you just need dinner to cook itself. These crockpot chicken tacos are one of my favorite easy meals when the day gets busy. Just toss everything in the slow cooker and by dinner time you have juicy, flavorful chicken ready for tacos.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts

• 1 packet taco seasoning

• 1 cup salsa

• ½ cup chicken broth

• tortillas

• toppings (cheese, lettuce, sour cream, cilantro)
