This is one of my favorite slow cooker meals and it is so easy to make!
It has a ton of flavor and is packed with vegetables, beans, and chicken. I love to serve it over brown rice and add avocado, Mexican cheese, and hot sauce on top.
My whole family enjoys this meal. It is great for busy days when there just isn't enough time in the day to cook. I love being able to put it all together in the morning and then come home to an amazing meal! You can also serve this with a side of corn chips to dunk in. Yum!!
