INSTANT POT MEXICAN SHREDDED CHICKEN


Having the ability to whip out some delicious Mexican shredded chicken to have on hand for tacos, burritos and even enchiladas is crazy convenient.. especially if you have kids and you are trying to save money.



If you have an Instant Pot or, even a Crock Pot, you can make that happen by dumping a few simple ingredients together and pushing a button or two. Allright.. you *might* have to do a little shredding at the end…. but there is nothing better than being able to make a filling meal at home.  Especially if that means not having to drag the family out to spend a wad of cash.
