This meal has become a huge favorite with my family and with anyone I share it with. It originally came from a slow cooker book that I am borrowing from my mother in law. It is a simple crockpot recipe with ingredients you normally have around the house or are easy to store until you need to use. I cut the recipe in half as the original makes 6-8 servings and it is more towards the 8 servings!
Cooking Ingredients:
2 chicken breast
1 can undrained black beans
1 can of undrained stewed tomatoes
7oz of tomato sauce (it is half of the can shown in pic)
1/2 cup of salsa (you chose how spicey, we use mild)
1-2 cups of grated cheese ( I use one of the packs of mixed cheddar and jack)
A few handfuls of tortilla chips
Optional: small can of green chilis
Pour all ingredients exept cheese and tortilla chips into slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
When there is about 30 minutes left of cooking, remove the chicken breast and shred.
Place chicken back in slow cooker and continue cooking.
Enjoy!
