I really don't know quite what to call this, but it is so good. Definitely one of our favorites!
1.5-ish lbs chicken (boneless/skinless, can be from the freezer and thawed or fresh)
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cans corn, drained
2 cans rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
1 packet taco seasoning
8 oz cream cheese (needs to be 1/3 fat or original, not fat free)
Put chicken in the crock pot, then top it with the canned items and taco seasoning.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
Add in the cream cheese (it melts more easily if you cut it into chunks) to the crock pot.
After 30 minutes, stir the cream cheese into the chicken mixture.
Serve over rice, with cheese, tomatoes, whatever you think sounds good. Eat it in a burrito, or it's REALLY good on salad (especially the second day when the liquid has absorbed a little).
It also freezes really well. Put all ingredients (except cream cheese) in a gallon ziploc bag. Freeze. When you want to cook it, pull it out of the freezer the night before to thaw, then cook in the crock pot normally.
