Servings: persons

1 pound chicken breasts
1 15 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 15 oz. can corn, drained
1 16 oz. jar of your favorite salsa
1 1.25 oz. packet of taco seasoning
12 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup crema
1 avocado, diced for topping
Chopped cilantro for topping
Queso fresco, crumbled for topping

1
In a Crock-Pot, add chicken breasts, black beans, corn, salsa and taco seasoning. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or 3-4 hours on high.
2
Once the chicken is cooked, take 2 forks and shred the chicken. It will be nice and tender.
3
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees.
4
Microwave the corn tortillas for 25 seconds, 3 at a time. Corn tortillas can break apart during the baking process, this will help eliminate that.
5
Scoop a couple of tablespoons of the filling in each warmed tortilla. Roll them and place seam-side down in a baking dish. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6
Drizzle with crema and sprinkle on diced avocado, chopped cilantro and queso fresco.
7
Dish up and enjoy guilt-free
