Shredded Chicken Taco Meat
"Started with 2 left over whole roasted chickens....needed something for dinner. I was going to make soup with the meat, but instead tried something else. Turned out AWSOME. Can be used in anything from an enchilada filling to a taco filling, to an additive to rice or noodles. I have taken tortilla chips and dipped it into the chicken or used it on top of nachos as well."

<p>Hi.. I'm Theresa...and I'm a SAHM in Chicago with three girls. And ALL three girls have very different tastes. I have one who won't eat simple foods like french fries, cheese pizza, mashed potato, corn dogs, etc. BUT she likes elaborate salads, feta cheese, veggie stuffed pizza, hot sauce on everything (especially things she doesn't like so she can eat them) Shrimp, spicy mexican dishes, etc. anything that you would never imagine a kids liking! AND my other two (the older and the youngest) only eat the basics and it's like pulling teeth to try something new. <br />Spaghetti, child mac, meat loaf, mac and cheese, beef brisket sandwiches, grilled steak or cheeseburgers, beef stew, cream cheese chicken, beef stew or chicken parmesan. That is about all I can make to appease everyone. (I have started ordering from Market Day at our school, and some of the preparred meals like tortilla crushed tilapia is actually a favorite here..so that is a big help) <br /><br />I really like this website and have found some spectacular recipies that have become a part of my regular routine!</p>
