Everyone will love this Keto Crockpot Salsa Chicken topped with cheese! With only 3 ingredients it is so easy to make in your slow cooker. You can easily flip this recipe by putting it in a lettuce wrap or soft taco. (be sure to use a low carb tortilla to keep this Keto friendly) The cheese makes this an entree that everyone will be requesting on your menu plan.
You can easily twist this delicious Keto Crockpot Salsa Chicken into a taco by cutting up the chicken breast or using chicken tenders. Simply take leaf lettuce or tortillas to make your own twist on tacos. It is easy to prepare and your whole family will love the taste. I love that it is only 3 ingredients and can be prepared in the slow cooker. I simply place the cooked chicken into a greased baking dish and then add on the Kraft Cheese to twist this dish into a family favorite! It is just not the same without the bubbly cheese on top.
I love to prepare this while we are at soccer practice and come home to a delicious dinner that we all love. I can eat the low carb version while my boys can enjoy the full carb version if they choose. A twist that makes every member of my family happy. This is an inexpensive recipe that is a crowd pleaser and with only three ingredients it is one that I can prepare in less than 5 minute once the slow cooker does all the hard work! My secret ingredient is the 2 cups of shredded Mexican Cheese that I add at the end! Feel free to use more or less but we always say more cheese is better! This recipe is included in our popular Beginner Keto Meal Plan.
