(Had to add this morning's view out my front windows...LOVE Sams wide angle lens)
Just thought I'd pass on this easy recipe that my friend gave me. We had it for dinner tonight and it was yummy. Takes about 10 minutes to get it all in the crockpot.
Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Stew
1 onion, chopped (I used a handful of dehydrated onions)
1 15 oz can black beans, undrained
1 15 oz can kidney beans, undrained (I used pintos, as I have kidney haters)
1 16 oz can corn, drained
1 8oz can tomato sauce
2 14.5 oz cans Rotel tomatoes (see note)
1 packet taco seasoning mix
1-2 boneless chicken breasts (or a can of cooked chicken)
Mix everything together in the crockpot except the chicken. Lay it on top and cover. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. 30 minutes before serving, remove chicken and shred. Return chicken to the slow cooker and cook another 30 mins.
I served it with shredded cheese and toasted corn tortilla strips. It makes about 6 servings if no one's a big eater, or 4 if you have hungry boys/teenagers.
I don't buy Rotel because they're usually more expensive than plain diced tomatoes. I used two cans of tomatoes and a can of chopped green chilis.
Jenny, I know you don't do chicken, but you could brown some hamburger and put it in, or a can of shredded roast beef, or any leftover meat. I don't recommend tuna, though. Yuck!

Ooooh. Yummy. I LIKE it!!!!!
Are you sure that's not a force field?
Cuz I would totally eat tuna? No. But I have almost all those ingredients in my pantry. I'm gonna try it with no meat. What do you think?
yeah, I think it'd be good with no meat....
This sounds delish! I love crock pot meals too.
Mmm yum. Thanks for the recipe. That rainbow is impressive!
I've had this and it is so good, easy and everyone will eat it.
Pretty pic too.
Thanks Michelle! I will be making this tout de suite! Perfect nummy winter meal-ee-o.
PS We need to have a meat intervention for Jenny. This is ridiculous.
That photo is so cool!
Thanks to Jenny for her question and your answer. Good to know for the people not liking meat.
So does Jenny just not do chicken? Or no meat at all??
Just wondering....
No idea..... either way she is basically spitting in the face of America.
I don't have a "no meat" rule. Generally speaking, I don't like meat, but I will eat it if it's prepared in a particular way. I especially don't like moist meat, meat floating in liquid, etc. I also don't like the word moist.
What if it is followed by the word towelette?
Jespy, They had "moist wipes" at Islands tonite and I thought of you. ;0)
Oh, and Sam wants to know what " a particular way" means.
Totally burned and dry. Seriously.
Tag! You're it! See my blog.
This is currently in my crock pot. Can't wait to try it tonight!
I should come eat at your house. When I was taking Meg to school, my friend called and had thhe 24 hr flu and needed help. So I went over there and watched her cuties most of the day and didn't cook. Now it's cold, rainy and I've no idea what's for dinner.

Hello Baileys!!! I didn't know you had a blog- it's good to see what your family's up to! And just looking at your pictures makes me miss Monterey- we're so sick of this snow! :)
