    Packaged Taco seasonings often have msg. Use ground cumin, coriander, and chili powder and sea salt or salt substitute. - 2/1/09

    I used about 1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken, but only one can of beans. (I skipped the Mexican beans.) Cooked it for 6 hours in slow cooker on low. It was fabulous! I'll eat it all week on rice, tortillas, or (as mentioned above) baked potatoes. Ended up as a chili or stew consistency. - 2/3/09

    I tried this today and it tasted delicious! It was so easy to make I'll definitely make this again and again! I used two cans of Rotel and a can of kidney beans instead of the tomatoes, chillis, beans and olives. - 2/6/09

    Made this over the weekend for supper and it was delicious! I've had the leftovers either on brown rice or a tortilla the past 3 days for lunch. My crockpot was already in use so cooked it on the stove on low for about 2 and a half hours and it turned out great. - 2/3/09

    I didn't have any olives so just put in 2 cans of the green chilis. Since I am single, I packaged 5 other containers to portion it out. Ate it with brown rice and it absorbed the liquid and made a hearty meal - 2/1/09

    I made this and my family loved it even my 3 year old granddaughter. i didn't have the 7-8 hr it calls for to cook it so I cooked it for an hour on high and then turned it to low. I also used chili powder, cumin, oregano, onion powder and garlic salt instead of pkg seasoning mix. - 2/14/09

    This recipe is fun to make. The juices come up to cook the pot and it is VERY tasty. It is also very rich, you won't be able to eat a lot, and you will feel full with a little, which is a good thing! - 2/3/09

    Base recipe is great. Because my husband has HBP I always monitor salt content. Rinsed the canned beans & olives, LS tomatoes, used my own seasoning & added juice of 1 lime at the end to brighten the flavor. - 3/3/09

    This recipe sounds wonderful, but has lots of sodium. I think when I make it, I'll substitute the taco seasoning with Mrs. Dash extra hot spices...this is a wonderful salt-free seasoning that's good on anything. Can't wait to try this. - 2/2/09

    This was very good. The recipe says to shred chicken and then add it back into the crock but to reduce the fat a little bit more, I strained the beans and veggies and added them to the chicken in a separate bowl. Also, instead of a can each of chilies and tomatoes, I used Rotel. EXCELLENT!! - 1/28/09

    I made this for a treat day at work. I poured everything in before coming to work, then plugged in the crock pot, cooked on high for 2 hours, then low for 2 hours. I switched out the chili beans for corn. It was a huge hit! People from all over came to see what the great smell was. THANKS! - 9/3/09

    Modified a little.
    I coated the chicken with the taco seasoning and used salsa and green chilis and a little burrito sauce. Placed in crock pot on low for several hours and voila!

    Very, very good!! I used a can of pinto beans instead of the other 2 types since that was what I had and also replaced the 1 can of tomatoes and 1 can of chilies with 1 can of Rotel diced tomatoes and chilies. I wrapped it up in a tortilla with some jalapeno slices- very tasty! Thanks for posting! - 1/31/09

    I started with frozen chicken breast, cooked that on high for an hour, then added remaining ingredients. Due to the frozen chicken, it was a bit watery. I used the shredded chicken and some of the mix on a salad, and the rest made a wonderful soup the following day. Two meals in one! - 1/29/09
