Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs chicken breasts or thighs

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 bell pepper, chopped (any color)

2 cups kale or spinach, roughly chopped

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp dried oregano

Salt and pepper, to taste

8 whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)

Optional toppings: sliced avocado, sour cream, salsa, or your favorite hot sauce

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Begin by placing the chicken breasts or thighs at the bottom of a large crockpot. Season the chicken generously with salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and oregano to infuse flavor.

    Add the Vegetables: Evenly scatter the diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped bell pepper over the seasoned chicken. Pour the low-sodium chicken broth over the mixture, ensuring all ingredients are covered for a succulent finish.

      Slow Cook: Secure the lid on the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. The chicken is ready when it is tender and shreds easily with a fork.

        Shred the Chicken: After the cooking time is complete, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot, incorporating it with the flavorful broth and vegetables.

          Add Greens: Fold in the chopped kale or spinach. Allow it to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the greens are just wilted, enhancing both the flavor and nutritional value of the wraps.

            Assemble the Wraps: Warm the whole wheat tortillas by placing them in a skillet over medium heat or microwaving them for a few seconds. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken and veggie mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Top it off with shredded cheese and any of the optional toppings you prefer.

              Wrap and Enjoy: To wrap, fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it tightly from the bottom up to secure the filling. Enjoy your savory, slow-cooked chicken and veggie wraps immediately while they're warm and delicious!
