4-5 chicken breasts(can even be frozen)
1 can black beans, drained
1 can corn, drained
1 (15 oz) jar of salsa
8 oz. cream cheese
Put chicken in crock pot. Add black beans, corn and salsa. Cook on high 4-5 hours. Add cream cheese and cook 30-45 minutes more.
I made instant white rice to go with it because it was pretty saucy. Very good and again, super easy!
I made the decision to NOT post a picture because to be honest, it looks pretty gross! But believe me, its very good!
Side note, Nat does not like to eat vegetables so I blended the salsa before adding it to the crock pot.

Aside from being the longest recipe title ever, I actually made this recipe up myself and it is actually quite good! You should give her a try. Here's what you need:
1 pound of shrimp
1 bottle italian dressing
1 pound of frozen cheese ravioli
5 oz. fresh spinach
4 cloves garlic, minced
1-2 T olive oil
2 tsp flour
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 T lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp lemon zest
Here's what you do:
1. Marinate shrimp in italian dressing for 3-24 hours.
2. Cook and drain ravioli.
3. Drain marinade off of shrimp. Saute garlic and shrimp in olive oil for 5 minutes.
4. Sprinkle flour over garlic and shrimp and cook for 1 minute. Stir in broth until dissolved and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to med-low and add cream, spinach, lemon juice, salt and pepper, and lemon zest.
5. Place ravioli on a serving dish and pour shrimp/spinach sauce over ravioli.
