Spicy Chicken Chili

During the week, I'm all about quick and easy meals. We try our best to eat healthy, but when things get hectic and crazy being healthy is tromped by feasibility. I recently found this recipe on Pinterest, and it turned out to be delicious, healthy, and super easy. Perfect for a weekday dinner. There was even quite a bit left over for lunches and future frozen meals. Here is what I did:

1 chopped onion
1 can (16 oz) kidney beans
1 can (16 oz) black beans
1 can (16 oz) tomato sauce (one 8 oz can will make it less soupy)
2 cans (~ 30oz) diced tomatoes with green chillies
1 can whole corn kernels (drained)
1 packet taco seasoning
1 T cumin
1 T chili powder (cut this in half if you don't like spice)
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Place all ingredients in the crock pot and stir. Make sure chicken breast are on top. Cook on low for 10 hours, or on high 6 hours. About half and hour before serving, take the chicken out and shred with two forks. It is so tender, it will easily pull apart. Place shredded pieces back in the pot and stir. That's it! Enjoy. : )
