- 1 cup Frozen corn kernels
- 0.5 cup Fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning (low-sodium)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the bottom of your slow cooker.
Add the diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, frozen corn kernels, and chicken broth on top of the chicken.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning, garlic powder, ground cumin, and salt over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
Stir gently to combine the spices with the other ingredients, ensuring the chicken remains on the bottom.
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6-7 hours until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir it into the mixture to absorb the flavors.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet.
Spoon the chicken mixture evenly onto each tortilla, about 3/4 cup per tortilla.
Top each burrito with shredded reduced-fat Mexican cheese blend and optional garnishes like salsa, fat-free sour cream, and chopped fresh cilantro.
Roll the tortillas into burritos by folding in the sides and rolling tightly from one end to the other.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy slow cooker chicken burritos!
