This idea comes courtesy of Erin P, a faithful reader. It's not her recipe though since I couldn't find it on her FB page and had to do some online research. The result...incredible. Not sure what is better, the price or the lack of effort required.
Ingredients
1. Chix breast ($1.68)
2. Fixins -- lettuce, onions, peppers and tomatoes, ($2.13)
3. Flour tortillas ($1.27 -- this is half the price of the package I bought last month, which kept nicely in the fridge)
4. Chicken broth ($.99)
5. Taco seasoning ($.99)
4. Spanish Rice-a-roni (leftovers)
5. Shredded cheese (leftovers)
6. Sour cream (leftovers)
Total: $6.86
Place 1lb boneless/skinless chix breast, along with 1 cup chix broth and taco seasoning packet in crock pot. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Shred chicken, prepare on tortillas as desired. Enjoy.
This meal took me less than 5 minutes to prepare and was yummy! And maybe the best part ...if all that isn't enough...there are leftovers for tomorrow :)

tom calls this magic chicken b/c if you use a pound of chicken and cut it up and cook it in a skillet you eat the whole thing but if you do it this way you always have leftovers. So good! Also, there is no need to defrost the chicken beforehand. Just throw it in frozen and cook for 8 hours.
