This post is a continuation of the previous recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos. I hope you saved all the tasty juices from your slow cooker! If you're looking to make the easiest and most super flavorful meal, you can click this link for the post or use the substitution in the recipe below.
I'm a big believer in leftovers - how about you? BUT I don't like eating the same meal day after day and I bet you don't either! I have lots of great recipes on the blog transforming leftovers, like this one for leftover ham because life is too boring to eat the same meal twice, right?!!
The last recipe I shared was a slow cooker meal that makes easy and delicious chicken tacos. It makes a ton of tacos and they are super yummy! This meal uses all of the flavorful broth that was created as that meal and some of the shredded chicken.
YUM!!!
I hope I made it super clear to save that broth because that is the starter for Crock Pot Chicken Taco Soup! (Didn't save it? No problem, I have a sub for that below.)
Let's make mealtime easier I say!
So that is Slow Cooker Meal Two - The next post will be the third meal utilizing leftover chicken - we are going to make chimichangas!
