Slow Cooker Black Bean Salsa Chicken

January 21, 2012

Here is a really easy and delicious meal to throw in your crockpot this week thanks to my friend Amanda. It is so versatile you can take your pick as how to serve it: Over rice, in a taco shell, quesedilla filling, over nachos – you name it, it will be delicious! We enjoyed this as a taco filling and then I put the rest in the freezer and can’t wait to have it again!

Ingredients
3-4 Chicken Breast
1 jar salsa
1 can rotel
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 bag frozen corn
1 brick cream cheese (I use the lowfat)
Optional toppings: tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, avocado slices, cilantro 

In a slow cooker, place chicken breast in the bottom and top with salsa through corn. Let cook on low 8-10 hrs. Once cooked through, shred chicken with a fork and stir in cream cheese. Serve as desired, top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

*If you want more taco flavor you can add taco mix, 1 teaspoon at a time until desired flavor is reached.
