So much of our lifestyle/weight loss success is determined by our willingness to plan and prepare. I get it ladies, we wear many hats as we navigate the many demands of any given day and cooking can be the last thing we want to do. This is why you need to try this simple slow cooker chicken recipe for busy nights..

This slow cooker shredded chicken recipe is not only simple, but it’s extremely versatile. You can throw this shredded chicken into some enchiladas, quesadillas, burritos, tacos, salads, bowls, and don’t judge…its even good cold. I make this chicken weekly because I know there are going to be a few nights where I’m going to have to put out some kind of fire (#momlife), and there won’t be time available for me to cook.

I never was a slow cooker person until I became a mom. I used to pride myself in cooking everything from scratch, but that isn’t my reality right now. Sure, I’ll go back to that at some point, but I appreciate  the simplicity in a recipe like this, because it allows me the opportunity to enjoy the things that are most  important to me, like watching Toy Story at the end of the day with my little guy.
