The pineapple and salsa combo made me a little nervous at first, but it turned out quite tasty. You can substitute other kinds of beans, if you don't prefer black and/or white.
6 fresh or frozen chicken breasts
1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15-ounce) can white beans (Great Northern), rinsed and drained
2 cups mild or medium salsa
Tortillas or tortilla chips and garnishes, like sour cream, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, etc.
Place the chicken in the crock pot and add the rest of the ingredients. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Using tongs, remove the chicken to a cutting board and shred into bite-size pieces. Mix the chicken back in with the rest of the ingredients. The mixture will be fairly soupy – I like to drain off some of the excess liquid before serving, especially if we are eating it in tortillas, so it doesn’t make everything soggy. Serve with tortilla chips and garnishes, like tomatoes, cheese, avocado, sour cream, etc.
* As an alternative, you could also serve it over rice.
