  • 1 cup corn chips

Directions

  1. Layer condensed soup, frozen chicken tenders, corn, diced tomatoes with chile peppers, soy beans, and frozen vegetables in a slow cooker. Cover slow cooker; cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours.

Cook's Notes:

When cooking with a slow cooker, it is important to add any dairy products in the last 30 minutes of cooking. Do not add any additional liquids. Adjust the chicken and veggies based on how many people you are serving and the size of your slow cooker. This recipe fills a standard-size slow cooker 1/3 to 1/2 full. If your slow cooker requires a temperature buffer when using frozen foods, heat the soup first than add the frozen ingredients.

Black beans can be used instead of black soy beans.
