Crock Pot Shredded Chicken Taco's


4Chicken Breasts or 6 Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
1Packet Taco Seasoning
6 ozGrape Jelly or 2 Tablespoons Molasses
1 jarSalsa
1Diced Jalapeno, optional
12Hard Taco Shells
Chopped Romaine Lettuce
Shredded Lower-fat Cheddar Cheese
Light Sour Cream
Sliced Avocado Tossed With Lime Juice
Western Light Dressing

DIRECTIONS:
Place the chicken breasts, jelly, taco seasoning packet, salsa and diced jalapeno in the slow cooker (for milder chicken, omit the jalapeno.) Cook chicken on high setting for four hours. When finished, the chicken will shred easily in the slow cooker using two forks.
Warm the shells in a 250-degree pre-heated oven for just a few minutes. Smear one side inside each shell with the light sour cream. 
Layer meat, cheese, lettuce and avocado on each taco. Top each with a thin line of Western Light dressing, and enjoy. 
These tacos are given a nutritional boost with the addition of the salsa, romaine instead of iceberg lettuce, and the avocado.
