I made this tonight by pre-cooking the chicken on a George Foreman and throwing the ingredients in a pan on the stove and simmering it on medium for a bit. Just in case anyone wants to make it a quick meal and not a slow cooker meal :) I used pinto instead of black beans, no corn, and no cream cheese and it still tasted great. I wrapped mine in a tortilla; Gavin had his in a bowl. Just some easy alterations :)
