Yep. I said it. I just combined all of my favorite things in the whole wide world.
My crock pot.
Chicken.
Chili.
Tacos.
Burritos.
No, I didn't leave out cheese.
Or sour cream.
or Beans.
but.. I did leave out one thing....
CALORIES!!
See this picture? This is ONE HALF of a serving. (And also ALL i could eat for my supper.) Don't worry.. ill snack on the other half before bed! *wink*
The recipe makes 10-12 one cup servings and includes 20 wraps AND toppings. Each wrap includes 1/2 cup of the "chili" in each wrap. This recipe is VERY filling.
Calories 514. Carbs 73. Fat 13. Protein 30.
If you choose not to include the wraps:
Calories 254. Carbs 29. Fat 6. Protein 24.
Ingredients:
24 ounces Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
1 onion, chopped
one 16 ounce can black beans
one 16 ounce can kidney beans
one 8 ounce can tomato sauce
one 14.5 ounce can diced tomato's with green chilies
1 packet taco seasoning
1 tablespoon cumin
**YES a tablespoon. its not too hot, I promise.
You NEED this or its VERY bland.**
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 small bag frozen corn (about 2 cups)
This is what you have right out of the crock pot, before any toppings...
You can serve this over rice, on the tortillas, with corn chips or as a chili!
Just the chili by itself is 193 calories, 26 carbs, 2 fat and 22 protein!
Now for the toppings.. (and the wraps!)
2 packages (10 count) soft taco Flour Tortillas (mine were 130 calories each)
2 cups shredded lettuce, divided
2 cups diced tomato's, divided
1 large container sour cream (1 tablespoon per wrap)
1 cup fancy shredded Mexican taco cheese, divided
Directions:
Mix all top ingredients EXCEPT the chicken in the crock pot and stir very well. Place chicken on top. Cover with foil, then the lid to the crock pot. Place on low and cook for 8-10 hours or on high for 6 hours. 30 minutes before serving, remove chicken and shred. Place back in the crock pot and stir well. the chili will get VERY thick. Place the cover back on the crock pot and turn to warm. (Or turn off) Shred lettuce, dice tomato's and prepare everything to serve. I suggest having everything on the table so each person can make their own *ONE at a time* because making more than one will cause the wraps to become soggy and they will fall apart.
This was SO amazing. My husband (who isn't calorie counting) kept saying.. WOW! Can i have another one? And managed to eat "just one more" four more times! He finally stopped with SIX of these bad boys!! This was definitely a keeper! This recipe made enough for TWO meals (even with the huge amount he ate!) and the VERY best part???
The ENTIRE meal cost me $16.69 !!! Yep! I can feed my family for $1.66 per serving!! That's what I'm talkin' about!!!! WOO-HOO!!! That makes me a happy camper!
Enjoy!!
