Shredded salsa chicken

Approx. 150 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 4 servings.

This shredded chicken recipe is similar to what yesterday's beef looked like when shredded. It's very simple to make and is tasty served warm or cold on a salad.

I used a red salsa when making this dish, but I've also made it with a green salsa. When I use the green salsa, I also like to toss 2 cups of chopped spinach into the crock pot with the other ingredients.


Ingredients
  • 14 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper


Directions
  1. Pour 1/4 cup salsa in bottom of the crockpot.
  2. Add chicken and diced bell pepper.
  3. Top with the remaining salsa.
  4. Heat on low for at least 8 hours.
  5. Shred chicken and mix well with salsa in crock pot.
  6. Serve on a salad (as shown) or in tacos, burritoes, on nachos, etc.
