Recipe Wednesday – Crock Pot Cream Cheese and Black Bean Chicken

I got this recipe off of Magnolias, Marriage, and Manhattan and I made it last week.  It was SO GOOD and SO EASY!  I am loving my crock pot so much these days because it makes cooking a healthy meal really simple.  And the good news is that we found out Charlotte’s a huge fan of salsa because she was downing the salsa and black beans and when she had sucked all the salsa off she was spitting out the black beans.  As a sidenote, I’m afraid my child is never going to eat any table food veggies!  🙂  Also, I would have had a picture but I realized when I checked the picture after dinner that my memory card was in the computer and not the camera when I was taking pictures with it.  Sorry!

Cream Cheese and Black Bean Chicken

4-5 chicken brea sts
2 cans of rinsed and drained black beans
4 oz cream cheese
2 cups salsa (I used mild)
Spice Options: taco seasoning, chili pepper, garlic powder, crushed red peppers

Throw salsa, chicken and beans into crock pot for 6-8 hours until chicken is falling apart. At the very end, add cream cheese until it melts (about 15 minutes). Stir. Serve.

We served ours plain, but you could use it as a filling in a tortilla or over rice.
