This was SOOO good! I used cheddar cheese soup instead of cream of chicke (to make vegetarian) and used a poblano pepper instead of bell. It was really good, but I felt like it was missing just a little something...I added just a dash of Hidden Valley Ranch Fiesta Ranch seasoning packet and that made it perfect! Not to mention it was SUPER easy!

I substituted fresh diced tomatoes for the canned and I used 2 ten ounce cans of mild green enchilada sauce. Even with these changes, my picky family really liked this. Perfect for a cold, dreary, rainy fall day. I loved that I could throw everything in the crock pot in the morning, and dinner was ready when I came home. The house smelled terrific too!

Very good! My Dad said he liked it a lot. I thought it was a bit over cooked at 8 hours. I would like to try it at 4 hours. I think the veggies were over cooked at 8 hours. The onion was gone, couldn't find any left. the beans were starting to blow up. The flavor was really good. Understand my crock pot is a beast. Dad said it was a do over dish, meaning he liked it, I was iffy.. I think it is very good and will try it on a day where I won't be gone so long. <br/><br/>Look forward to mastering the veggie version, then I'll try it with some grilled chicken. Yum!

This is a good "chowder" but I felt as if it was missing something...so did my hubby. We think maybe some cumin or something like that to round out the flavor. I used pinto beans in place of the black beans as no one in my family is a big fan of black beans and I used two cans as I thought the soup needed a little more stuff. Overall, it does have a nice taste and it is very easy to put together. I think next time I will substitute Rotel tomatoes for the regular tomatoes and add a bit of cumin. Thank you for an easy weeknight dish!
