Easy Crock Pot Chicken Tacos

The reason 'Easy' is in the title of this recipe is because it is just that easy to make.

I love cooking in the crock pot and having dinner ready, or pretty much ready, when I get home from a busy day. Or when your kitchen and furniture are all over the place. Or when you're living at a hotel. :] This is perfect for one of those occasions. It is packed with flavor and the aroma will make others want to eat dinner with you. Try it, you'll love it!
