Do you have words that you always say? Words that maybe your family teases you about because they hear them on a daily basis?
I certainly do and here are mine:
Stink!
Seriously.
And…Easy Peasy!
Which is exactly how I would describe these Crockpot Chicken Taco Bowls pinned from Budget Bytes! Easy Peasy!
One of the things that I love most about crockpot dishes is that you get to smell dinner cooking all day long. And with the garlic in this dish, my family was loitering around the crockpot for quite a while, just waiting for it to be dinner time.
This recipe is in the classic style of crockpot cooking which is to just dump all of the ingredients into your crockpot and let it cook! Can’t get any easier than that!
Here is a look at the dish before the cheese was added:
And then another look at the finished product. I think maybe I should describe this as Easy, Peasy, Cheesy, Cheesy!
I am happy to report that these Crockpot Chicken Taco Bowls do not Stink and are Easy Peasy to make. Seriously.
This Pin Rocks!
Here’s my favorite Crock-Pot to make this dish!

Thanks Jennifer! Deb
This would be a great meal for nights when we have a crazy schedule. Thanks for sharing at Simple Supper Tuesday.
I have a recipe that’s very similar: combine in the crock pot 4 chicken breasts (i usually cube it), one can black beans (drained), one can of corn (drained), one jar of salsa, one packet of taco seasoning, and one cup of chicken stock. Let it cook until chicken is done (about 4 hours on high), then add one cup of shredded cheddar and a half cup of sour cream. SO delicious! It’s like a cheesy tex-mex stew! I leave out the cheese and sour cream if I’m feeling healthy, because otherwise, the recipe isn’t too bad!
Whenever I hear “crock pot” I’m interested! This sounds soooo good!
