Join the discussionCould you also just assemble all the raw ingredients, freeze that, then thaw and cook in the slow cooker? Or would the textures not hold up in the freezer?
Yes Kathleen that would work. These directions are written as if you were cooking it that day. But yes, if you were just freezing the meal, your method would work.
What’s the weight of the cans used? Not sure if we have the same sizes here in Australia, plus I’m using home made broth.
Hi Jasmine! 10 ounces chicken broth, 10 ounces diced tomatoes w/ chiles, 15 ounces black beans.
Hope that helps!
Have you tried doubling this recipe? Do you need to increase the cook time, or should you just have it on high instead of low?
Shannon – This recipe can be easily doubled. Cook on low – but you may need to cook for an additional hour.
Thank you so much!
Any idea on how many calories this has?

Made this yesterday for dinner! It was yummy! Thank you!I did use fresh cilantro instead of dried. I added it just before serving.My children topped it with cheese. They think this recipe tastes better than my regular easy shredded chicken tacos (taco seasoning packet, one pound of chicken breast and a jar of salsa) that I make.
So glad your family loved it! I am a huge fan of fresh cilantro whenever possible as well!
I’m back writing the recipe on a card for my file! That’s how much of a hit it is!Thinking about it… would fresh cilantro freeze well? or does it lose it’s punch?
