Hey guys. Sorry for the delay in posting this recipe. It was VERY good, and I will definitely be making it again. So, here is the recipe:

CROCKPOT CHICKEN TACO SOUP

1 small onion, chopped
1 can chili beans
1 can black or kidney beans (I used black)
1 can creamed corn
1 can chicken broth (I used 2 C homemade broth)
1 can diced tomatoes
1 pkg (1.25 oz) taco seasoning
2-3 chicken breasts (I'm going to try thighs next time)
1/4-1/2 C uncooked rice (optional) (I added this to the original recipe because Jason likes soup to be thick, 1/4 C will make it more soup-like, 1/2 C will make it more casserole-like)

Put onion, beans, corn, broth, and tomatoes in crockpot. Stir to combine, then mix in taco seasoning. Place whole (raw) chicken breasts into soup, making sure they are completely covered by the liquid. Cook about 4 hours on low. Take chicken out, cool, and chop. Put it back into the crockpot. Add rice. Stir. Cook until dinner time, at least 2 more hours.

Serve with sour cream, cheese, and/or crushed tortilla chips.
