Slow Cooker Fajita Chicken Salad
This easy slow cooker fajita chicken salad can be made in a variety of ways including low-carb, dairy, and gluten-free!
We love all things tacos around here – taco salads, taco wraps, taco seasoning, baked enchiladas, burrito bowls. . . you get the picture. Because tacos are so versatile and can be enjoyed with nutrient-dense carbs or without any carbs, dairy free by eliminating the cheese or sour cream, gluten-free by using corn tortillas – tacos are a recipe regular in our house.
We typically make something taco related every Tuesday and either use this recipe or whip up ground turkey on the stove.
What makes this recipe fabulous is that the leftover fajita chicken an be used in lots of other recipes.
