OAMC Month 1, Day 7: Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos

This recipe was given to me by my neighbor and it was super easy and super yummy.  Who doesn't like tacos anyway?  You could probably even make this taco meat with ground beef or with a roast.  Try it out and let me know!

Ingredients and Freezing Instructions:

1 jar mild Pace Picante Sauce
6 chicken breasts

Place raw chicken and salsa in freezer bag and label.  Yep, that's it.

Cooking day instructions:

Thaw and place in slow cooker for 6 hours, shred meat.  I put in 2 different freezer bags. Serve in 100% corn tortillas or hard taco shells with any fixins you like.  May be served with Spanish rice, and refried beans or with fried polenta rounds.  Yum!

Price: $7 for 8 meals for our family of 5
The Verdict on a scale of 1-10: I will give this one an 8.  This one tasted awesome, but after 4 days everyone was sick of eating it.  I think next time I would break it up into 4 freezer bags and then cook it in my small slow cooker.
