Crock Pot Chicken Tacos

I don't know about you, but our family can never pass up a good Mexican style meal.  So, when we were early on in the changing our eating habits, I was given a recipe for crockpot tacos.  This was one of the first recipes I tried and it was such a great thing I did.  This recipe was a HIT (not just a little but a HUGE hit) and is still a favorite.

I encourage you to give it try.  Besides, you can't go wrong when you put things in a crock pot and it is ready by dinner time with little effort.
