I only have a can of cream style corn. Will that still work in this recipe?

This was extremely tasty and simple! I used 1 can of Ro-Tel and 1 can of fire-roasted diced tomatoes as well as a can of pintos instead of kidney beans because that is what was in the pantry. The flavor of this stew was AMAZING! Especially considering, you throw it in, shred the chicken and voila! I am DEFINITELY making this again with no changes :)

Easy and yummy! I left out the onion because I made it before I went to work early in the morning. I used hot Rotel tomatoes because we like it hot. Next time, I will chop some green pepper and onion the night before to throw in. Thanks for a super easy and tasty recipe!

This was absolutely delicious. I added a can of tomato paste by mistake. I like a thicker stew, so the addition was perfect. I ate it served over brown rice topped with a little cheese and sour cream. Yummy!!

Yumm, yumm, yumm! I was looking for something fast easy and light to cook over the weekend for lunches this week and this was just perfect. As I was putting it together, I realized I was out of black beans (everything was already in the crock pot) so I decided to proceed with pinto beans instead. Added a teaspoon of cumin as well as I like the smokiness it adds to fare of this sort. The stew was hearty filling and bursting with flavor. It was also pretty mild so if you are seeking some heat drop in that jalapeno as the posting chef suggests. For me this made six good size serving all of which I will enjoy, lapping up every drop with a little corn bread. Thanks!

Putting a packet of taco seasoning in a stew is a great idea! This was super tasty. I did make some changes though. I just cut up the raw chicken and mixed it in with the other ingredients at the start, and I used a LOT of chopped dried chili peppers. Tasted great, and the leftovers were even better. Try topping this with shredded cheddar, greek yogurt, green onions, and sliced serrano peppers... SO GOOD

This is an awesome recipe!! I cut the recipe in half & used just black beans, 1 (101/2 oz) can of mild Rotel, my own taco seasoning, added 1 cup veggie broth & used 3 oz tomato paste instead of the tomato sauce. The chicken, once cooked, just shredded apart so easily. I think this cooked down in about 5 hours. Thank you so much for sharing!

I am... ~a mother of 2 kids (19 and 22) who are extremely picky eaters. The mere mention of "healthy" sends them running in the opposite direction. They prefer the creamy, cheesy, fried stuff that they weren't brought up on!~a wife of a wonderful man who fights an expanding waistline and will lovingly eat most anything I set before him. Everything is 5 stars to him. :) He's the easiest customer a cook could ask for! ~a teacher who tends to reach for comfort foods to relieve stress. I am a middle school reading specialist. The miracles I see on a daily basis keeps me going! But it's also stressful, so keep me away from the cookie jar! I really have to fight off the sugary, fat-laden stuff that has no worth beyond the momentary comfort in my mouth.~and I'm also a daughter who was brought up on home cooked meals back when calories meant nothing and taste was everything! That is an idea built into my system that's hard to shake! My mother raised 8 kids (I'm #7) on her home-cooking and I always teased her that she didn't raise a single skinny kid! I luckily inherited her great love of cooking and baking. (I miss you Mom!)~finally, I'm "mom" to the best Bichon in the world. He is Quincy, our kid in a dogsuit. He's 13 years old, but still a puppy to us. <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/264017/Quincy%20run%20small.jpg>Below are photos I've taken of some of my favorite recipes found on Recipezaar: <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://w265.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/5b275464.pbw" height="300" width="400"><a href="http://photobucket.com/slideshows" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://s265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/?action=view¤t=5b275464.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><style>body{background:url("http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii223/duchick/lakehouse_cupcake.jpg?v=0");background-repeat:repeat;}</style>
