Chicken Taco Soup

Sorry, no photos. But this was quite delicious and easy to make - I love when you can just throw everything into a crockpot and be done with it.

Chicken Taco Soup
Makes 6-8 servings

Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped
2 (15 oz) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (12 fluid oz) can or bottle beer (anything but light) - I used Stella
2 (10 oz) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
1 (1.25 oz) package taco seasoning
2 whole skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut in half (I used 3 chicken breasts)

Directions:
1. Place the onion, black beans, corn, tomato sauce, beer, and diced tomatoes in a slow cooker. Add taco seasoning, and stir to blend. Lay chicken breasts on top of the mixture, pressing down slightly until just covered by the other ingredients.
2. Set slow cooker for low heat, cover, and cook for 5 hours.
3. Remove chicken from the soup, and allow to cool long enough to be handled. Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup, and continue cooking for 1-2 hours on low.
