Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili

This one was good as well. I think the spices needed to be adjusted slightly as in...there needs to be more. Zac said it was a little on the bland side. I love how healthy it is, but filling very filling at the same time.

The corn bread recipe that goes along with it is the shiz. Highly recommend making it as well.
 I forgot to take a photo, but here is the picture from The Comfort of Cooking Blog Post
