This is such a simple recipe even small children can help make it. If you like spicier Mexican foods, you can add jalapino pepper to it or a small can of green chiles.
Ingredients:
32 ounces chicken broth (can use water and chicken bullion)
2 cans diced tomatoes
3 cans kidney or chili beans (drained)
3 cans whole kernal corn (drained)
1 can cream of chicken soup
3 raw chicken breasts (skinless)
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 bag Dorito chips (nacho cheese works well)
Directions:
In a very large pot, or a slow cooker, pour the chicken broth and add all the canned ingredients. Sprinkle the taco seasoning mix over it. Stir all ingredients. Toss in the chicken breasts. Cover and bring to a slow simmer over medium-low heat (about setting 3 on a stove) for 4 hours. Remove the chicken breasts and shred them. Return the shredded meat to the stock and stir well. Using a small pin, poke a few holes into the Dorito chip bag to allow the air to escape. With your hands, crush the chips until they're very small. Open the bag and pour the chips into the soup. Allow to simmer for 15-30 minutes. The longer you simmer it, the thicker it will become. Leftovers can easily be frozen or made into a casserole another day since it does thicken on reheating.
Suggested toppings can include your favorite taco toppings: salsa, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce, chopped onion.
Serves very well with creamy cornbread and a salad.
