Tuesdays Tasties

Slow Cooker Chicken Burritos

Hi all, who doesn't love an easy and delicious crock pot recipe? Here is another recipe that I got from Weight Watchers.

What You Need:
* 1 medium clove of garlic minced
* 1 small red onion, chopped
* 14 1/2 oz canned diced tomatoes with chilies
* 14 oz beans, the recipe calls for kidney beans, however, I used black beans
* 1 tsp chili powder
* 1/2 tsp table salt
* 1/4 tsp dried oregano, crushed
* 1/4 tsp black pepper
* Jalapenos, chopped to add a little kick
* 1 pound skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite sized pieces
* 1/4 cup canned chicken broth
* 12 medium whole wheat tortillas
* 3/4 cup shredded-reduced fat Mexican Style Cheese

Let's Make It:
* Put garlic, onion, diced tomatoes, beans, chili powder, salt, pepper, jalapeno and oregano into crock pot and mix well.
* Next add the chicken and the chicken broth, stir again
* Cover and cook on low for 5 hours, then drain off liquid
* To serve place about 1/2 cup of burrito mixture onto wheat tortilla and cover with 1 tablespoon of cheese. Roll up the burrito and top with your choice of topping, salsa etc.

Enjoy!
