Mexican food is always a favorite. Just stir the ingredients for these burritos into your slow cooker and let the slow cooker do all the work. Perfect for a buffet meal or an open house where guests can come and go. Put out little bowls of other toppings like tomatoes, green onions, hot peppers and fresh cilantro and let guests assemble their own burrito. Kids will enjoy the simple, familiar flavors of the bean and chicken, and most especially the cheese. Serve with lime wedges for a cooking squeeze over the filling. Quickly warm your tortillas in the microwave before serving. Place between layers of wet paper towels to keep moist.
