This is one of my go-to fast and easy recipes. I love it because I usually have everything in the house and can easily throw it together. If you’re in a hurry, you can even use canned chicken or a rotisserie chicken. Every week I cook a bag of frozen chicken breasts in the crockpot on low for 4-6 hours and shred it up and freeze it in small portions so I always have chicken ready for recipes like this.
