One Pot Cooked Southwest Chicken

Everyday, with just 15 minutes of preparation, busy moms will be out of the kitchen in no time. This delicious, low-fat dish gets even better when served with low-fat sour cream and cilantro. Also, using the leftover roasted chicken will enhance the flavor of this dish and definitely save money, as well.

Ingredients:
3 cups roasted chicken, cut into bite-size pieces
1 can 15 oz black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can 14-1/2 oz diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained
1 cup homemade chicken broth
1/2 cup white onions sliced
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 cup button mushrooms, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tbs lemon juice
2 tbs chopped fresh parley or 1 tbs dried parsley
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
Serve with hot cooked rice, avocado, and cilantro

Directions:
In a 2 or 3 qt. slow cooker, combine the beans, broth, tomatoes, corn, chicken and seasonings. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours.

Serve over rice. Garnish with avocado and cilantro.
