Sante Fe Chicken in the Crock pot

Good evening!

Monday's are a very busy day at this house.  Between work, Cj's soccer practice, Zak at climb team and scouts we have little time to actually make dinner.  We decided months ago that Monday's would be crock pot day and it rocks!  I serve this two ways: 1. over rice and 2. in tortillas.  I usually give people the option because it is simple.  We also serve it with grated cheese, sour cream and avocado.  Enjoy!

Ingredients: 3-4 chicken breasts, 2 cans diced tomatoes w/chiles, 2 cans chicken broth (we use the organic kind), 6 scallions diced up, 8 oz. frozen corn, 1 or 2 cans black beans, 2 t garlic, 2 t onion powder, 2 t cumin, 2 t cayenne pepper or to taste.

Directions: Throw it all in a crock pot and cook on low for 10 hours.  Take the chicken out and shred it.  Place chicken bake in the bean mixture and let sit for 10 minutes or so. It's ready to serve after that.

I will say that we plan on doing onions and peppers in the mixture next time, we all missed that.
