Chicken Burrito Filling

This recipe is so yummy!  My friend Holly passed it my way-Thank you Holly!!!   I made it for dinner today and will definitely make it again.  Super easy.

Chicken Burrito Filling

Layer in Crock pot:
10 Frozen chicken tenders (I used three frozen chicken breasts)
1 cup of chicken broth
1 cup of chunky salsa
1 can corn, drained (or frozen corn)
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 package of taco seasoning

Cook on low 4-5 hours, until chicken is done.  I shredded the chicken in the crock pot, mixed it all up, and then served it up with shredded cheese in a tortilla (I use the tortillas that you cook from Costco).  Top with sour cream or other yummy toppings.  

Holly's other suggestions: Serve with tortilla chips or on top of mixed salad greens with crushed chips, green onions, and Mexican style rice.

This had to be one of the easiest meals I have ever made and I had all the ingredients on hand.  I might even add a little rice to the mixture next time.  I had about half left after dinner (we are only a family of 3) so I will be freezing the mixture to break out again for dinner.  Love it!
