  1. Take 4 frozen, yes, frozen (or thawed), boneless chicken breasts put into crock pot. Add the black beans, corn, salsa, and taco seasoning if using. Keep in crock pot on low for about 4-5 hours or until chicken is cooked. Once it is cooked, take it out and shred it. Return shredded chicken to the crockpot.
  2. Add the cream cheese (just throw it on top!) and let sit for about 1/2 hour. It may look at little strange at this point. Don't worry. Stir in the cream cheese.
