Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    3 boneless, skinless chicken breast
    1 can Rotel tomatoes
    1 can Ortega black beans, drained and rinsed
    6 Mission Low Carb Tortillas, soft taco size
    ground cumin, to taste
    salt, to taste

Directions

Partially thaw the chicken breasts. Place in small crock pot and cover with the can of Rotel tomatoes. Cook on high for two hours or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Once completely cooked. Remove chicken from crockpot and shred (I used my Rival mini food chopper). Put back in crock with broth. Add can of black beans. Add cumin for extra kick. Add salt, to taste. Put crock pot on low and simmer until the beans and chicken are hot. Serve with carb friendly tortillas. Add fat free cheddar, fat free sour cream and guacamole for a full Mexican dinner! Makes 8 (or so) tacos.

Variations:
Add 1/2 cup chicken mixture to 1.5 cups salad for a chicken "taco-less" salad.

Serve chicken and beans with Lay's Baked Tortilla Scoops for low-fat chicken nachos.
