Rub the chicken with 3 to 4 teaspoons of taco seasoning, coating both sides evenly.

Lay the chicken over the salsa in the crock pot, covering all spots.

Spread the remaining salsa over the chicken.

Cook on high for 3 to 4 hours, or on low for 6 to 8 hours.

After cooking, break the chicken into smaller pieces and stir to coat with the salsa.

Serve the chicken taco filling in corn tortillas, flour tortillas, or taco shells, and add toppings such as lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and tofu sour cream.
