Why am I doing this?

Hello everyone or no one... ... I have started this blog as a sort of diary. I haven't been all that happy with my physical self as of late and am beginning to remedy these feelings. I thought that this might be a good place to go when I have things to say and no one to really say them to. So enjoy, laugh at, or relate to all that is to follow. Andi

Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili

This one was good too!  and super easy to make too.  I think I spent a total of 20 minutes on preparation.  10 in the beginning and 10 just before serving.  This recipe made 9-10 cups of chili and they were 6.5 points per serving!

Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili
1 onion, chopped
1 16-oz can black beans 1
1 16-oz can kidney beans 
1 8-oz can tomato sauce 
10 oz package frozen corn kernels 
 2 14.5-oz cans diced tomatoes w/chilies 
1 packet taco seasoning 
1 tbsp cumin 
1 tbsp chili powder
 24 oz (3-4) boneless skinless chicken breasts 
chili peppers, chopped (optional) I didn't use
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro I mixed in the crock pot at the beginning

Combine beans, onion, chili peppers, corn, tomato sauce, cumin, chili powder and taco seasoning in a slow cooker. Place chicken on top and cover. Cook on low for 10 hours or on high for 6 hours. Half hour before serving, remove chicken and shred. Return chicken to slow cooker and stir in. Top with fresh cilantro.
You can also try it with low fat cheese and sour cream (extra points)
