Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook just until browned, about 3 minutes. In the prepared slow cooker combine the chicken, enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, beans, green chile peppers, cheese, cumin, oregano, basil and chili powder. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 3 hours or on high-heat setting for 1 1/2 hours. Meanwhile, prepare corn bread topper. In a medium bowl stir together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl combine milk, egg product and melted butter. Add milk mixture all at once to cornmeal mixture; stir just until moistened (mixture will be thin). If using low-heat setting, turn cooker to high-heat setting. Gently spoon cornbread topper evenly over mixture in cooker. Cover and cook about 50 minutes more or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of corn bread comes out clean. (Do not lift cover during cooking.) Top with sliced green onions and top with yogurt, if desired. Serve immediately.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients.
