Chicken Tortilla Slow Cooker Soup

3 or 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 ten ounce cans of diced tomatoes with chilis
one 15 ounce can of black beans drained
15 ounce can of corn
one jar of salsa
one 15 ounce can of kidney beans (I forgot to put these in)

put chicken in crockpot
add tomatoes
add beans
put corn and salsa on the top

cook for approximately eight hours on low

near end of cooking time, remove chicken breasts and shred and then return
to pot

I also added one envelope of Sazon Goya Sin Achiote and some  garlic pepper
it could use some more spices  (more than are in the original recipe)
Near the end, I thought it was too thick so I added a can of chicken broth

I served with tortilla chips and sour cream, but some shredded cheese might
be a good addition.

I liked it better as a leftover than I did the first night I served it

Trader Ming's BBQ Chicken Teriyaki

Peggy recommended this product when we went to TRADER JOE'S a few weeks ago.
I added half a can of chunks of pineapple and some leftover carrots.  It was VERY GOOD!

I served it with brown rice and spring rolls on the side.
