Here is how you make Slow Cooker and Oven Root Beer Chicken Tostadas:

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN:1. Place all ingredients in a slow cooker and mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. If you use frozen chicken, it is best to thaw it out first.2. Turn slow cooker on low and allow the chicken to cook for 1 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Sauce will thicken as it cooks, so you can add a bit of water or chicken broth if it becomes too thick.3. Remove chicken from sauce and use a fork to shred it. Place shredded chicken back in slow cooker and mix well with sauce.4. Continue cooking on low for 1 to 2 hours, adding water or chicken broth if it becomes too thick.TOSTADAS:1. Spray cookie sheet or baking pan with cooking spray.2. Place four tostada shells in pan and cover each with a thin layer of refried beans.3. Top beans with chicken mixture from the slow cooker.4. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes, watching carefully. If edges of tostadas begin to burn, remove them. 5. Sprinkle cheese on top of tostadas and bake an additional 2-3 minutes, till cheese is melted. If you prefer, you can skip this step and allow the cheese to melt on its own, though fat-free cheeses do not tend to melt as quickly.6. Serve and enjoy!Serving Size: Makes 2 servings (2 tostadas each)Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user AUTIEJ.
