Equipment
Slow Cooker- 6 quart or larger (I own and use this one from Crock-Pot)
Ingredients
2
lbs.
boneless skinless chicken breast
1
oz.
packet mild taco seasoning
16
oz.
jar chunky salsa
(We use Pace Picante)
8
oz
cream cheese
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle the taco seasoning evenly over the chicken.
Pour the chunky salsa over the chicken, making sure it covers the chicken completely.
Place the cream cheese on top of the salsa.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to low for 6 hours.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove the lid and use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker.
Stir everything together until the cream cheese, chicken, and salsa are fully mixed and creamy.
Serve with desired sides and toppings and enjoy!
