Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili

Crock pot cooking is amazing. It gives me the free time to accomplish tasks like laundry, cleaning, reading and napping, while still having a yummy dinner. I've made this chili before and it's a nice variation to all those other chili recipes. I like to add a little sour cream, cheese and fresh cilantro to my bowel. A slice of avocado would be nice too. Also included with this recipe are the Weight Watchers points. Enjoy!
