How to Make Tex Mex Chicken Tacos in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
When life gets busy, all I really want is an easy recipe to make that will taste good. Can anyone else relate? These Tex Mex Crock Pot Chicken Tacos are just the ticket! This recipe is as close to a dump and go recipe as you can get without actually being a dump and go recipe. You just have to dump the ingredients that go on top of the chicken in a bowl, mix them up real quick and then dump them on top of the chicken. It is as easy as can be!
