Directions
Makes 12 1 CUP SERVINGS (You can double up and still be just over 300 Calories!)

1. Dice up your Onion, Green Chilies,Cilantro, and Garlic. Dump in a crockpot.

2. Rinse your beans in a strainer and then pour over veggies in crock pot.

3. Dump Oregano, Cayenne, and cumin in.

4. Pour Chicken Broth in. Give a stir.

5. Place Chicken Breasts (frozen or not, if you don't want to simmer as long can be thawed) on top.

Simmer 5-6 hours. You can take the chicken out at about 5 hours and cube or shred or just break it apart with a utensil while cooking. After it is apart put it back in and stir. I shred it right in the crock pot by moving it around with a wooden spoon.

Pour in a bowl and dig in!

    Very yummy! Activelee is my husband (and creator of this recipe), and he made this fantastic soup for me. Delicious and so filling. Touch of spice, but not too spicy for this gringo. - 1/10/10

    Wonderful recipe! The spiciness off the cayenne and green chilies really made it. We'll be making this one often! - 1/18/10

    This soup is fantastic! My husband (a sparkpeople fanatic) RAVED about it! I had to substitute a can of black beans and a can of kidney beans for the Great Northern beans. So I think any kind would work. It was great! - 1/18/10
