I ordered these adorable Coco themed cookies as well to go along with our Mexican themed party food.

How to Make Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Chicken

This dish is great to feed a crowd and could not be simpler.

Two pounds of chicken go into the slow cooker first.

Then season with kosher salt and pepper.

Next goes half a jar of salsa verde and half a jar of queso.

Keep the remaining salsa and queso to enjoy with chips as you enjoy the chicken tacos.
