Introduction

I halved most of EMOSTEEN's recipe and added more chicken. Next time I will rinse all ingredients and quantify how much water to add in to replace it. I'd also like to make my own taco seasoning following Chef Meg's recipe. I'm sure that will bring down the sodium a ton. My first goal with this recipe was a lot of protein, which I achieved. Stay tuned for a lower sodium option. I halved most of EMOSTEEN's recipe and added more chicken. Next time I will rinse all ingredients and quantify how much water to add in to replace it.

Ingredients

    1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
    4 oz. tomato sauce
    14.5 oz. can of rotel with chilies
    15.5 oz can of goya black beans
    15.25oz can corn with no added salt
    1/4c Mc Cormick taco seasoning (12t)

Directions

Pam interior of slow cooker. Add all ingredients, besides chicken, into a 3.5 quart slow cooker and stir. Place chicken on top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Prior to serving, remove chicken breasts, and shred using two forks. Return shredded chicken to soup. Divide into 3 hearty portions.* (Rough Math= 2.8 cups per serving)

Garnish with sour cream or low fat shredded cheese (not included in nutrition). I enjoyed mine with a flat out wrap on the side.
