Ingredients
-
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup salsa
1 package reduced sodium taco seasoning
1 can reduced fat cream of mushroom soup (condensed)
1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream
Directions
Add chicken to slow cooker.
Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken.
Pour salsa and soup over chicken.
Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.
Serve with rice.
NOTES:
You may use half the packet of taco seasoning (I have started doing this to reduce sodium content myself)
Some slow cookers cook faster than others. Mine is a true slow cooker (have had it over 10 years.) The newer ones cook a bit faster and you may have to adjust your cooking time based on that!
I get many emails asking how much a serving is. I don't think I have ever measured it sorry! I just know that five people eat and I usually have one serving left over.

taco seasoning is super easy to make by yourself which means half the preservatives!
chili powder, minced garlic, a little flour, onion powder or finely chopped onion and a dash of salt. put it all in a sauce pan with a little water and cook for about 3 minutes on medium, then add to your recipe - 2/9/09

I made this last week and the whole family loved it! That includes a very picky husband, and teenage daughter. I shredded the chicken after I removed it from the crock and served it as a burrito with a low carb whole wheat tortilla filled with the chicken, sauce, brown rice, and fresh veggies! - 4/6/09

Oh my gosh!!!! I was afraid this might not be as good as everyone lead on to be, but this was def. a keeper for ALL of my picky eaters! I did it with the campbell's cheese soup, and used the entire taco seas. and a little bit of chicken broth. I also add a 1/2 can of black beans. it was AWESOME!!!! - 4/23/09

This was wonderful! I took the advice of some of the other comments and used 1/2 packet of the taco seasoning and used 98% fat free cream of chicken soup. I cooked in a newer crock pot on high and it was done in 3 hours. The chicken was very tender and juicy. Served over brown rice. Delicious! - 4/6/09

We really enjoyed this, and will definately make again. I used cream of chicken soup. (Note to self, next time try cheddar cheese soup, only 1/2 the packet of taco seasoning, and re-calculate the calories. The recipe was calculated on 1.5 lbs chicken and 1/2 can of soup).Makes tons of sauce. - 1/21/09

I used bone-in, skinless chicken breasts for added flavor and to keep moisture in the meat. After reading through the reviews, I also used homemade taco seasoning, HR cream of chicken soup, and mashed up black beans. So Yummy! This could be used as a burrito filler, salad, over rice, pasta, etc... - 6/3/09

This was really good. The chicken was moist too! Will definitely make again.
I just made this recipe again, but added can of HR cream of celery soup, 1 C minute rice, 1 can (3/4) full of skim milk, eliminated sour cream and 1 breast. This turned out very good as well; with just a little twist! - 4/26/09

Delicious! My husband loves it as well. I'm amazed by how easy it was to make, too. I used half the packet of taco seasoning, added two cups of frozen corn in the last hour, and served it in a bowl, poured over mashed potatoes. I was taken aback by how soupy it was, though, I was expecting thicker. - 5/1/09
