Santa Fe Chicken

I serve this with warm tortillas to make burritos. You could also serve over rice. And the left-overs are great as a dip for tortilla chips!

Ingredients:
1 can black beans, drained
2 cans corn
2 cups salsa
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, thawed
2 oz cream cheese
1 cup cheddar cheese

Directions:
Add all ingredients except for cheeses into the crockpot. Cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6 hours. Shred the chicken with a fork while inside the crockpot. Right before you serve, add the cream cheese and cheddar cheese. Wait until it melts, then mix into other ingredients.

Prep time: 5 minutes

Variations: The original recipe calls for 2 cups frozen corn instead of canned corn.
