Crockpot Chicken Ranch Tacos my friends - so delicious you won't realize it's clean eating.
This dairy-free, sugar-free, gluten-free weeknight meal is not only simple, it's also delicious and versatile.
One of the toughest things I face as a mom who cooks most nights is finding meals everyone will enjoy equally and not tire of quickly.
I'm always looking for healthy.
Jay wants hearty.
Ella prefers something fun.
And of course...we all want tasty.
This meal makes us all happy! This flavor-packed, tender, shredded chicken allows Ella to have her tortillas, Jay can have his over rice or white potatoes with all of his favorite toppings and I like mine either as a salad or over a sweet potato. Win. Win. Win. -> Recipe at the bottom!
All this requires is throwing chicken in a crockpot, adding my Homemade Taco Seasoning, my Homemade Ranch Seasoning, and little bit of water. Cook on low 6 hours. Done!!

KEEPING IT REAL
It's almost 8pm on a Friday night as I'm finishing up this post.
But I made a promise to my Instagram friends to share it on the blog TODAY...and...well...
I'm keeping my promise.
PS - Halloween decorations came down in 30 seconds this morning and my Christmas decor is all up in my house as of yesterday - Halloween. I have really good reasons - and none of them are related to blogging or social media. I'm spilling it all in my Instagram stories...go find out why. I promise I'm not crazy. *wink*
