Chicken tortilla soup -Crockpot

Heres a new recipe for all you recipe goers. Found it on a message board I frequent:

Chicken Tortilla Soup

4 uncooked boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 15 oz cans black beans, undrained
2 15 oz cans rotel
1 cup low sodium salsa
4 oz can chopped green chilies, undrained
14-1/2 oz can low sodium tomato sauce
baked tortilla chips
2 cups grated fat-free cheese

1. Combine all ingredients except chips and cheese in large slow cooker.
2. Cover. Cook on low for 8 hours.
3. Just before serving, remove chicken breasts and slice into bite sized pieces. Stir into soup.
4. To serve, put a handful of chips in each individual soup bowl. Ladle soup over chips. Top with cheese.

It was REALLY good! I didn't use any of the 'light' or 'low sodium' ingredients, just regular. I also didn't do the chips bc I don't deal with soggy chips :) But it was really really good. A bit spicy for me, but since I had my 2nd my stomach doesn't do spicy very well. I just topped it with some cheese and avacado then took a tortilla and spread avacado in it to dip and it was enough 'mild' to deal with the spicy.

Great Recipe!
