2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
1 (16 ounce) can chili beans
1 (15 ounce) can black beans
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 medium onion, chopped

1 ½ tablespoons taco seasoning, reduced sodium

Directions

Combine diced tomatoes, chili beans, black beans, corn, beer, and tomato sauce in a slow cooker. Stir in onion, carrot, and taco seasoning until blended. Place chicken breasts on top of the mixture, pressing down on each one to slightly submerge. Cover and cook on Low for 5 hours.
