I made this last weekend and I've been eating it for lunch or dinner every day! It's great over rice, over salad, in tacos, or inside a quesedilla (sp?). The cheddar soup makes it a little soupy so you can omit that if you want, but I would prob throw in 1/2 block of low fat cream cheese to up the creamy factor.
Ingredients:
1.5 lb chicken thighs (you can use breasts if you like that, I just prefer thighs when shredding)
1 can low sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can no salt added corn, drained and rinsed
2 bell peppers, cut into strips (I used green, that's all I had)
2 white onions, cut into strips
1.5 - 2 cups of salsa (fresh=better)
1 can of Cambell's Cheddar Soup
Directions:
Layer all ingredients in the crockpot as follows: fresh veggies, beans and corn, soup, and salsa then slightly mix the salsa, soup, beans, and corn. Lay the chicken in a single layer on top. Cook on low about 6 hours. Shred the chicken and mix everything together then continue to cook for about 2 hours.
Enjoy!

Totally forgot to post that!
Serves about 8 people - serving size is 1 cup
Cals 234
Sugar 7g
Fat 5g
Protein 24g
Fiber 7g
Sodium 477mg (most of this comes from the soup)
To get the serving size I just used a 1 cup scoop to put it into containers so the serving size might vary.0 -

Sounds great. I would use frozen corn so not to worry about the sodium. Also istead of the cheddar soup. I would try just shredding low fat cheddar cheese and mixing it in. try the website dLife. they ahve great receipes for low carb, low and low sugar.0
