RECIPE
Crockpot Chicken Tacos
We are rounding out this week of taco recipes with my crockpot chicken taco recipe. This is so easy to make. You just throw everything in the crockpot and let it cook all day. You can even use frozen chicken. The chicken comes out so juicy and full of flavor.
I sometimes wish taco night could be every night, don’t you? We absolutely love tacos in our house. Honestly we probably have them at least once a week, but it’s tacos, how can you go wrong?? These crockpot tacos are so easy to make and my favorite chicken taco. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!!
That’s the Dish from my Kitchen to your Kitchen ????

Tips & Recommendations
