Chicken & Pepper Soft Tacos

Talk about Easy!  I tossed these ingredients in the crock pot at about 10am this morning and we had a fantastic meal at 6pm!  Can't get any easier than that!

3-5 chicken breasts depending on size.  Mine were roughly 7oz. each and I used 3.  I even put them in frozen!

2 bell peppers, any color, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
dash salt
2 Tablespoons lemon juice

Place the chicken breasts on the bottom of your crock pot, followed by the onions and peppers. Drizzle the lemon juice over chicken.  Mix the spices/salt into the 1/2 cup of chicken broth and pour over chicken.  Set on low and cook for 6-8 hours.  I shredded the chicken at about hour 5 and let it continue to cook until we ate!




We topped ours with my family's FAVORITE salsa - Jack's Special Salsa by Garden Fresh Gourmet.  If you haven't had it - you must try it!  We also used shredded 4 blend cheese and low fat sour cream.  Yum!
