Hey Keller Family! I created this blog for all of us to add all of our yummy recipes, and have a central location for them. I know I am always calling back and forth to get a recipe because I lose the paper I've written it on. So here's my solution! A printed recipe book would be outdated quickly as many of us love to find new recipes to try. Be sure to label what your recipe is (main dish, dessert, side, etc) so it will be easier for others to find. So start adding recipes!

Crock Pot Santa Fe Chicken

INGREDIENTS:
24 oz (1 1/2) lbs chicken breast
14.4 oz can diced tomatoes with mild green chilies
15 oz can black beans
8 oz frozen corn
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
14.4 oz can fat free chicken broth
3 scallions, chopped
1 tsp garlic powder (I use fresh garlic)
1 tsp onion powder (I chop up 1/2 fresh onion)
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper (to taste)
salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Combine chicken broth, beans, corn, tomatoes, cilantro, scallions, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne pepper and salt in the crock pot. Season chicken breast with salt and lay on top. 
Cook on low for 10 hours or on high for 6 hours. Half hour before serving, remove chicken and shred. Return chicken to slow cooker and stir in. Adjust salt and seasoning to taste. Serve over rice or tortillas and your favorite toppings.

This is off my favorite recipe site, skinnytaste.com.  If you're looking for yummy recipes that are low calorie, then check it out!  Love this recipe, because it is simple and versatile.  And pretty healthy!  One cup of this is only 190 calories! I throw this in the morning, and have the option to put it over rice, put it over chips for nachos, put in tortillas for tacos.  It is yummy with a little cheese, sour cream, or guacamole as toppings.  Enjoy!   Kim
