Spicy Black Bean & Chicken Soup {tasty thursday}

I've got an easy-peasy crock-pot soup for y'all today! It's healthy and delicious as well, so a win-win for everyone.

What you need:

• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
• 1 16 oz package frozen mixed veggies
• 1 16 oz can salsa - i used chiptotle & black bean
• 16 oz Chicken stock
• 1 tbsp cumin
• 3 tbsp diced jalepenos
• pinch chili powder
• pinch black pepper
• pinch of salt
• 3 cans black beans, drained

What you do:
Place everything but the black beans in the crock-pot, stir, and cook on low for 6-7 hours. I place the chicken on top of everything else and just leave it for the 8 hours.

Shred the chicken, stir, and add the black beans. You can taste as this point to see if you need additional salt, pepper, or cumin. Cook on low for another hour so the beans will soften.

Stir and serve! This is excellent served with Trader Joe's cornbread:) Enjoy!
