I love this Crockpot Mexican Shredded Chicken, because I’m often looking for ways to add protein to my breakfasts and lunches. One quick run through the recipe can get you all set for the week ahead! And its so simple – thank goodness for crockpots!
TIP: Separate your shredded chicken into individual portion sized freezer bags and throw them in the freezer if you know you won’t be able to eat it all within the week. It will make for easier lunches and breakfasts in the future, and you won’t have to thaw the entire amount!
TIP: Add some of this shredded chicken to scrambled eggs for a festive morning egg bowl. Salsa, anyone?
