Chicken Taco Soup

[jlloyd99]

It seems that I am always in need of a new way to use leftover chicken after we've smoked a couple. Here is my recip for Chicken Taco Soup, it can also be made with beef.

1 lb. smoked, chopped chicken meat (or ground beef/turkey/roast/etc.)
Med. onion, chopped
1 can chili beans
1 can pinto or black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn
1 can Rotel
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 package taco seasoning
2 c. water

Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker and simmer on low for 8 hrs (minimum 2 on high setting) I like to throw this together before heading off to work and when I come home it's waiting for me. Serve with corn chips, sour cream, and cheese.

Lady J, your timing is perfect! I have a half of a smoked chicken in the freezer (if cooked/smoked leftovers are in the freezer, the boys won't eat it :twisted: ). The weather around here the past couple of days has been perfect 'soup' weather.
I used the other half of the smoked chicken for your Chicken Enchilada Casserole that my two oldest daughters RAVED about and they now have copies of your recipe in their collection. I sure the Chicken Taco Soup will wind up there as well. :D
