SOUTHWEST CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Plug crock pot in and set to high or low depending on how long you are cooking it for
• I lightly sprayed the bottom of my crockpot then lay down the chicken breast.
• Add in the corn, peppers and onions.
• I mixed my chili powder and paprika in with the jar of salsa before pouring salsa over chicken.
• Add the lime juice, salt & pepper then stir the mixture around.
• Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
• Using a few forks shred chicken right in the crockpot and then serve immediately.
• Use your favorite low point taco shells and toppings, or serve on top of a salad.
• The mixture alone is zero smart points, the only points you will need to count are based on what tortilla/shells and toppings you use.
• *Note- feel free to add in a can of zero point beans to the mixture.
• Taco mixture will store in the fridge for a fews days and freezes well. Makes 12- 1/2 cup servings
