Live long… Laugh often… Love always.
I love having a second meal from the previous nights left overs! Last night I made a turkey and potatoes for dinner for our family and ended up with a bunch of leftovers. Tonight I am making Shredded Turkey Tacos it is easy and awesome, you can even make it in the slow cooker!
Ingredients:
3 cups shredded turkey or shredded chicken
2 cups chicken broth
1- 10 oz can Mexican tomatoes with diced chilies (Rotel) or 1 and 1/4 cup Salsa
1 packet of taco seasoning
I have done this a few ways.
Shred precooked chicken or turkey add to a saucepan along with the remaining ingredients and simmer on low for about 30 minutes. If you want to make it in a slow cooker add the ingredients and cook on low 4 hours to incorporate the seasonings into the meat.
If you want to make it in the slow cooker and don’t have left over meat add 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker with the remaining ingredients and cook on low 8 hours or high 4 hours, shred the chicken breasts with two forks when you get home.
We dish it up with a slotted spoon to remove juice, serve with taco shells, and taco fixings and you have a simple meal and found a great use for that leftover turkey or chicken!!
