SLOW COOKER SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS



Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken Tacos image

I needed a dinner entree I could make for a pretty large party that wouldn't break the bank and wouldn't take me all day to cook. So, I decided tacos would do the trick! I threw together some ingredients for shredded chicken tacos, and it turned out great. I served them on corn tortillas, with diced white onion, cilantro, and freshly quartered limes for a more "authentic" feel, but the meat is great for nachos or other dishes as well.
