Delicious Slow Cooker Ranch Chicken Tacos with Salsa, Tortillas & Onions

I love tacos and could eat them several times per week. This is an easy recipe, a ranch chicken wrapped in soft flour tortillas and topped with red onion and cabbage slaw, cilantro, and creamy ranch dressing! 

First some Tips:

For a creamier chicken filling, stir ¼ cup ranch dressing into slow cooker after shredding chicken.

For a spicier chicken filling, add ½-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper to chicken along with taco and ranch seasonings.

Look at those mouth watering pictures, don’t you want to try it right away?

By the way, do you know what is the difference between a sandwich and the Taco?

For one thing the meat usually comes thinly sliced in a sandwich and in a taco it is usually chunks or shredded. For the veggies, well, I suppose those can be the same whether it’s on bread or in a tortilla. But the sauces! I think that’s the real kicker. The sauces and flavor variety that goes into a taco is often a lot different than what you would have in a sandwich. And I suppose I favor the taco flavors.

Today, I’m switching things up with our taco fillings and especially the sauce. I’m 100% on board with any kind of taco topped with salsa (I heart salsa forevah) but we’re gonna set aside that jar of On the Border for a second and think creamy, white RANCH.

Sound crazy? It is. Crazy DELICIOUS.
