Crock Pot Mishmash, For The Lack Of A Better Name

This is one of my favorite things to make because :

A) It is easy
B) It smells good all day long while it is cooking
C) I always have all the ingredients for it on hand
D) It is versatile
E) Everyone likes it


I just put chicken breasts in the crockpot and dump in a can of black beans, corn and rotel tomatoes. I use mild rotel, because despite me Texas heritage, my taste buds are babies. I let it cook all day in the crockpot and it really does smell terrific.
Now you get to the options. Sometimes I just serve it with chicken breats intact and all the mixture over it, with rice and salad on the side. Sometimes I dice the chicken and serve the whole thing over rice.

But my most fav-o-rite way to serve it is as smothered burritos. Mmmm, mmmm. I shread the chicken, mix it with cooked rice, load it into tortillas, smother them with green burrito sauce, add a little (or a lot) of cheese, and bake. Oh yeah. It's that good. My mixture above made 2 pans of burritos this size.

Wow...that does look good. I'll have to try it, it looks like something my husband would definitely eat.

This is actually a WW recipe - or like one that I have too! Yummy! We serve it with brown rice. I've never tried the enchiladas. That would be good too! Of course, then it wouldn't be WW friendly, right?

That sounds tasty. I might just have to try that some time. Thanks for the recipe. By the way. I also think my little Cam has a look of Jake too.

I was looking for a crock pot recipe to make for the missionaries. They have to eat at 8pm which means I will be busy putting children to bed BEFORE they come over. I am totally making this. Besides I am a huge sucker for smothered burritos!

I dont like it with the cheese or all the other stuff, but I like it with the rice, corn, black beans, chicken, and tomatoes.
