Instant Pot Shredded Chicken Tacos are a time saver on Taco Tuesday!! Is there anything better than that day of the week?? You may have seen on Instagram last week that we were in Seaside, OR with another family, we were lucky enough to stay at a condo with them. We both brought our Instant Pots to cook with while we were there! (I have included affiliate links to products I love. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)
This is going to be the main way I do our shredded chicken for tacos from here on out! Taco Tuesday is a hit in our house, even if it falls on a Thursday! Now we brought her 8 quart Instant Pot (you can see it ->here on Amazon) but we used my 6 Quart Instant Pot to make this up. I do have to say I have 8 Quart Instant Pot envy and I think I am going to be ordering one soon!
