This recipe Joy found on a certain message board was experimented on here last night and was rated two thumbs us times six! Easy peasy and very filling.
Chicken Taco Chili
8 Servings, about 200 calories each
1 can black beans
1 can kidney beans
1 can corn kernels
1 small can diced tomatoes with green chilies
16 oz tomato sauce
28 oz diced tomatoes
packet taco seasoning
1 Tbsp chili powder
3 boneless chicken breasts
Cook 6 hours high or 10 hours low in the crock pot.
So…the recipe didn’t call for the green chilies, but I thought the color would be a nice addition (green Bell peppers could also be used, but they do not like me). I used mild because I am a wuss when it comes to spicy hot.
Some added a small dollop of sour cream on top. Delish. Love my crockpot one-dish meals, but we did have something extry special to go along with this (besides brownies and ice cream): grilled okra! Srsly good stuff…a little olive oil, salt, garlic. Leave’em whole…toss in a ziploc and marinate for awhile, then grill.
Try it! Oh my goodness!!!
It was 50 chilly here in Mayberry this morning, but the sun is smiling on us, making this a great day. I hope yours is, too! Share a smile…

Glad it was good! Six thumbs up is a pretty good review. I have never tried grilled okra but I do like it fried. Don't like it slimy, though (as in stewed) or with tomatoes. Now that there is a little bit of cool in the air, chili in the crockpot is sounding better and better!
Oh, look! I just saw this on your recipe blog! I've already pinned it on Pinterest! And 200 calories is hard to beat so I pinned it onto my Sensible Eating Board!
Sadly, bell peppers do not like me much either. I sneak a few in my salad, chopped small, mostly for color.
It was 78 here. I'll take it because it beats a muggy 83 any day! srsly.
Big hugs from south jawjah! xoxo
i'm guessing you shred the 3 chicken breasts after they cook? not sure. sounds delicious! i use ground turkey all white meat in mine and it's about the same but that one packet of chili mix has SO much sodium i always gain for a few days if i eat it. i know it's water weight but still...
hugs, bee

my kind of soup/chili... Today's a soup day. It's a cool day here in the PNW
Oh this sounds so good and as for the okra? I love okra anyway you want to fix it. Yummy. We are so going to try this chili.
Have a terrific day. Big hugs honey. :)
That sounds really good. I'll have to try making that...maybe it'll be the maiden dish for my crock pot.
Not sure about the okra though. I've never tried okra so I think I may have someone experienced make it for me first.
I am making this chili today for my stamping gals tonight. Can't wait to try it! (The leftovers will be frozen for our upcoming camping trip.)
