It's Friday, which means I'm thinking about all the things I'm going to eat this weekend. Tonight, we are trying the new salad place in Billings, Crisp & Green. I have high hopes.

One of my favorite things to eat is Mexican food...or...my take on Mexican food. I am zero percent authentic. Whether I'm doing tacos or nachos, my favorite meat is this pressure cooker chicken taco meat. It's easy and delicious.

I use a Ninja Foodie, but you can do this in an Instant Pot, as well. I've included a printable pdf at the bottom of the article.

I like to use Old El Paso Hot & Spicy taco seasoning mix. I like to use these "bear claw" things to shred my chicken.
