    Crockpot Chicken Tacos recipe

    When people think of "easy healthy recipes", tacos don't usually come to mind. That's because they haven't tried these Crockpot Chicken Tacos!

    Tacos can really be and healthy or as unhealthy as you want them to be. If you use deep-fried taco shells and load them up with beef, cheese and sour cream - then they will be a diet disaster. But swap out the taco shells for flour tortillas, make them with chicken instead of beef and load them with lettuce, tomato and just a little cheese? You end up with a much healthier dinner!

    To make these Crockpot Chicken Tacos, you will need:
