Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken


I made this last night, so good and so easy and fast. The kids loved it along with Jason and I so here it is: I loved it and would make it again. I put real onions and real garlic in it. I also didn't put green onions on top, but I did put it in the crock pot. I only cooked mine for like 2-3 hours on high, then i turned it down to low. It was so good!! It was not hot from the cayenne pepper at all.


Slow cooked shredded chicken with corn, tomatoes and black beans. Prepare the night before and turn your crock pot on in the morning for an easy weeknight meal. Low fat and low in points. Serve over rice with chopped scallions, fresh cilantro, fat free sour cream and reduced fat cheddar.
