Crockpot Chicken for Tacos/Burritos

I made this for the first time tonight and really liked it!  So, so easy and quick.  As well as simple ingredients I always have on hand. I wasn't expecting it to be that great considering there aren't any spices in it...but it was quite flavorful. I'm not sure if I loved it so much because it was just so easy... but either way I will definitely use it more.  Just throw in a piece of chicken and open a few cans - and you're done! 


Ingredients:
--1 frozen boneless, skinless chicken breast or pieces
--1 can of diced tomatoes
--1-2 cans of green chiles
--1 cup frozen corn or drained canned corn
--1 can of beans (drained)  - I used black beans
--your favorite taco or burrito fixings
--shells or tortillas

* It was also a little too watery for me. I would probably take the lid off of the crockpot for the last 30 minutes or so of cooking.


Directions:
--plop the chicken into the crockpot. 
--cover chicken with the tomatoes, chiles, beans and corn.
--cook on low for 7-10 hours, or on high for 5-6. Shred meat with forks and stuff into your favorite shell or tortilla.
