super easy and quick to prepare

Rub the slow cooker with a little oil to prevent sticking. Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker and baste with the salsa. Cook on high for about 3 to 3.5 hours, or on automatic for about 5 hours. Add the cumin, chili powder, and lemon juice at the very end and simmer for another 15 minutes before serving. Delicious with a green salad, on a sandwich, or with old-fashioned fried potatoes.
