Ingredients

2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts2 Tbsp. taco seasoning1 cup finely diced onion (about 1 medium onion)2 cups shredded carrots1 cup salsa1/2 cup water1 cup reduced-fat sour cream8 low-carb whole wheat tortillas

Directions

Place the chicken in a slow cooker (I put it in while still frozen). Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the meat, then layer the onion, carrots, and salsa on top. Pour 1/2 cup water over the mixture, set on low and cook for 6 to 8 hours. The meat is cooked when it shreds or reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

When ready to serve, shred the chicken with two forks (or, use your kitchenaid mixer to quickly and easily shred the meat), then stir in the sour cream. Put 1/8 of the mixture into a tortilla and wrap up. Serve with a nice green salad.
