Ingredients

1 15oz can tomato sauce
2 tbsp tomato paste
3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp yellow mustard
3 tsp molasses
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 medium onion diced
1 medium bell pepper diced
4 cloves of garlic minced
2 tbsp tapioca starch
4-5 chicken breasts

Instructions

Stir everything except the chicken together inside the slow cooker vessel, until the sauce is combined.
Add the chicken breasts to the sauce and stir to combine. Put the lid on the slow cooker, and slow cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4 hours.
Turn the slow cooker off, and use tongs to pull the chicken out to a cutting board to shred with forks.
Stir the shredded chicken back into the sauce, and season with salt and pepper to your taste.
Serve the chicken sloppy joes on a bun of your choosing. It is also delicious over a baked sweet potato, potato, or in a big salad bowl.
