DIRECTIONS

Add chicken and diced tomatoes and green chilies to a crockpot. Turn on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours. After the chicken is cooked shred it with two forks and add the packet of taco seasoning. Mix until everything is well combined.
Preheat oven to 425℉ and line a baking sheet (you may need two baking sheets) with foil or silicone mat.
Spray each tortilla with cooking spray and lay them flat on the baking sheet. Bake for 3 minutes. They should be soft and pliable.
Remove the tortillas from the oven. On one half of the tortilla add 1 tbsp. of refried beans followed by ¼ cup shredded chicken mix, followed by ½ oz. of shredded cheese. Fold the other half of the tortilla over the side with the food goodies.
Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Remove from the oven and add additional toppings. Enjoy!
