    I made this tonight for the first time - and both my husband and I LOVED it! I know there has been a lot of talk about sodium concerns - so i thought id post another option. I used a packet of fajita seasoning instead of the low sodium taco seasoning - it has MUCH less sodium, but all of the flavor you want with the convenience of a packet. I served it over long grain brown rice made with white corn, minced garlic, and a few squeezes of fresh lime. I know we will make this time and time again.

    You could go without the seasoning at all. I never use it and I think it tastes the same.

    Same here! I tried making it without the taco seasoning and it was still good!

    I make one similar to this

    4 chicken breast
    1 jar salsa

    Cover chicken with salsa ( just enough to where you cant see the chicken anymore)

    cook on low for 6 hours.

    Shred and return chicken to juices.
    Serve on tortillas like a taco!

    Made this last week following the OP's recipe. It was really really good, but waaaay to salty for me! Will definately make it again, though next time I'm completely omitting the taco seasoning.
