I love mine!

Just throw in the ingredients in the morning and let it simmer all day.  Not only does it smell good while it’s cooking, it such a great feeling when you don’t have to decide what’s for dinner at the last minute.

This shredded chicken is so tasty and you can do a lot of different things with it:

  • soft tacos
  • hard shell tacos
  • tostadas
  • burritos
  • enchiladas
  • chicken burrito bowl (over rice)

I only cooked two chicken breasts this time, but you may want to cook more because there are SO many things you can prepare with the leftovers!
