Easy Crockpot Shredded Chicken
My good friend and fellow registered and licensed dietitian, Sarah Canale, chose this recipe because of its versatility. As Sarah points out, the seasonings can easily be tailored to your taste, and the cooked chicken can be transformed into a variety of meals, such as chicken salad, tacos, BBQ chicken sliders, soups, and pasta dishes.
