Easy, delicious crock soup recipe to share

[srahndennis]

I love this crock pot soup! I make it a couple of times each month -- year round. I'm told it's a weight wathers recipe and it looks like it would be CORE. It's really easy and very tasty. I use frozen chicken breasts and just dump everything in the crock pot.

This looks yummy. I am trying to use my crockpot more. I have 2 questions-what size is your crockpot and do you drain the corn?
Thanks.

[srahndennis]

Moonbeam -- My crock pot is 5 qts. I don't drain the corn. I do drain and rinse the black beans but it's really a preference not a necessity. It's turned out well either way.

Thanks for the info. I see that you are from Grapevine. My husband had a conference there last May and we stayed at the Gaylord Texan. It was beautiful.

This recipe looks great. Did it come from a WW cookbook or Meeting?

Thanks for posting it.

Hey everyone, this recipe is really good. I got my copy of it at a meeting but I also believe that it's in one of thier cookbooks. I went to double check and realized I loaned that cookbook out and haven't gotten it back yet.

Thanks for reminding me of it. I just pulled my crock back out with the change in weather and kids back in school and everyone in my household loves it.:D

garden_girl_kp -- I think it came from a WW meeting (it was passed on to me) but I'll bet it's in a cookbook, too. I just don't have any idea which one. It's funny -- I started making this even before I joined WW - just because it's so good!

moonbeam -- haven't been to the Gaylord Texan yet. I hear it's incredible, though. Maybe over the holidays....

I just put all the ingredients in the crock to get ready for the a.m. It's a big bunch of soup!! Has anyone tried freezing it?

[Chefzhat]

Thanks for posting. This looked so easy and I had all the ingredients so I just went into the kitchen and tossed it together. I was searching for a crock pot meal. Usually this is a school day for me, but youngest ds is sick so we're having a couch potato day.

Can't wait to try this tonight!

[srahndennis]

Haven't tried to freeze it - we usually take the leftovers for lunch -but I don't see why you couldn't.

Hope you all enjoy it!!

We really like this for a quick simple dinner. Although, I could have increased the heat. There were no Rotel tomatoes last time I shopped, so I got the Delmonte mild chile tomatoes- and they ARE mild. Added some shredded chedder to the bowl, and enjoyed.
Thanks for posting the recipe, srahndennis.
