SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN AND BEAN SOUP (CROCK POT)



Southwestern Chicken and Bean Soup (Crock Pot) image

This soup has a good chili flavor and is simple to pull together even when the refrigerator is looking pretty bare. I do substitute fresh ingredients when I have them and the time to prepare them, but I list canned ones here for convenience (and they do taste pretty good anyhow!). I leave the seeds in my chili pepper, but take them out if you want a milder taste, and adjust the seasonings accordingly as well. This soup is very flexible - it's a good way to use up leftover chicken, beans and corn, and I believe you could use ground beef or turkey or TVP in this just as easily as chicken breast. I found a 6 can soup recipe on the web, but I altered it so much that it became something new, and this is the result.

This is a yummy, comforting soup, to be enjoyed any time of the year, but especially in the cooler months. It's so easy to do and when you walk through the door after work, you will have a wonderdul, delicious meal! Just some crunchy french bread or some hot cornbread with honey butter will top off the meal! Note: I like to add corn to the recipe and carrots.
