An all-in-one meal, these Crock Pot Chicken Taco Bowls are truly a satisfying dish.
Each bowl is loaded with quality ingredients that taste AMAZING and will help give you energy while keeping you full. By cooking the chicken in the crock pot with salsa, it allows for the chicken to become, tender, juicy and oh-so flavorful.
And because it’s so filling, you really don’t need any side dishes with this. It also freezes really well! So double the recipe if you want to store some in the freezer for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or for lunches.
The kids love topping their own bowls with all their favorite condiments, and I love how incredibly delicious and healthy these Chicken Taco Bowls are!
This is a Weight Watchers Crock Pot recipe that is a family favorite and gets made again and again.

We tried this recipe for the first time back in April. My 5 year old asks for it all the time & calls it the “Chipotle” dinner. It was great!
Is there a Taco shell included in this recipe???
Gonna try this one!
