6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 chicken breast — though you can use 2–3 if your family prefers extra chicken
- 3 cans great northern beans, undrained (15 ounces each)
- 1 jar salsa (16 ounces)
- 1 small can chopped green chilies, undrained
- 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
Instructions
1Add everything to the slow cooker. Place the chicken breasts into the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the great northern beans, salsa, and chopped green chilies.
2Cook on LOW. Cover and cook on LOW for about 8 hours, or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
3Shred the chicken. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
4Return and stir. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir everything together.
5Add cheese and serve. Add the shredded Monterey Jack cheese and stir until melted and creamy, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.
