    Chicken crockpot tacos:

    3 - 4 chicken breasts (this makes tons)
    One to two packs of chipotle ortego taco seasonings
    Mushrooms
    Onions
    Black olives
    Half can of rotel
    1 ½ cups water

    Slice all your onions/mushrooms and put in bottom of crockpot. Add black olive to taste. Put ck on top. Stir together water and taco seasonings. Pour over ck and veggies. Add rotel on top. Cover and cook 7-8 or so hours on low. (works on high 4-6 as well). About an hour before they are done uncover them and shred the chicken with forks and stir together. They will absorb the liquid.
    These come out so so tender and juicy and delicious
