I just found a recipes for shredded chicken wraps.
Put thawed chicken breasts in the crockpot and cover with salsa. It says to add taco seasoning but I tried fajhita seasoning also and it tasted great. Cook on low for 6 hours and you should be able to shred the chicken. Serve on tortillas with whatever you like.0 -
I'm making a Crock pot Buffalo chicken lettuce wrap tonight for dinner,
Ingredients:
For the chicken:
24 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
1 celery stalk
1/2 onion, diced
1 clove garlic
16 oz fat free low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup hot cayenne pepper sauce (I use my homemade hot sauce but Frank's works good.)
For the wraps:
6 large lettuce leaves, Bibb or Iceberg
1 1/2 cups shredded carrots
2 large celery stalks, cut into 2 inch matchsticks
Directions:
In a crock pot, combine chicken, onions, celery stalk, garlic and broth (enough to cover your chicken, use water if the can of broth isn't enough). Cover and cook on high 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.
Remove the chicken from pot, reserve 1/2 cup broth and discard the rest. Shred the chicken with two forks, return to the slow cooker with the 1/2 cup broth and the hot sauce and set to on high for an additional 30 minutes. Makes 3 cups chicken.
To prepare lettuce cups, place 1/2 cup buffalo chicken in each leaf, top with 1/4 cup shredded carrots, celery and dressing of your choice. Wrap up and start eating!

I like to put a whole chicken in the crock pot. I stuff some chunks of onion in the cavity, sprinkle on some herbs and put a little dry sherry the pot, then cook on low while I'm at work. It seems less greasy, and I assume it has quite a bit less sodium than deli rotisserie chicken, but it's similar in taste/texture and almost as easy.0

Cilantro lime shredded chicken taco filling - easy, yummy, very low in calories. Do use fresh cilantro. Dried just isn't quite the same. I didn't use 3 pounds of chicken. It turned out fine with less. It would freeze fine, but it didn't last that long at my house.

5-6 frozen chicken breasts, add a can of chopped canned pineapple (you can drain some of the juice) and then cover with bbq sauce. Cook on low 6-8 hours. It will be easy to pull apart. You can eat it like that or add it on a bun.0

A nice easy one, put a whole chicken in on medium power for about 4 hours. Then remove the skin and the bones (they should just fall out), pour off the fat and juices then shred the meat and add a bbq sauce of your choice, pulled chicken.
Served in either buns, wraps, lettuce, with salad or rice.0 -
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot. Add a jar of mushroom spaghetti sauce and cook six hours. You can add fresh mushrooms too. Chicken cacciatore. Serve over whole wheat noodles or rice. This freezes well too.0
