Notes

For extra flavor, sear the chicken in a skillet before adding it to the crockpot. Customize your spice levels by adjusting the amount of chili powder and taco seasoning. Consider adding diced bell peppers or zucchini for added vegetables. If you prefer a thicker soup, mash some of the beans in the pot before serving.
