Crockpot Tortilla Soup

1/2 tsp salt
1-2 bell peppers sliced
1/2 onion, diced

Tip: instead of buying tortilla chips, I buy baked tostadas and use them like tortilla chips.
How to:
Place chicken, broth, salsa, black beans, corn, cumin, chili powder, salt to crockpot and set on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-5 hours.
When ready to eat, saute peppers and onions. Mix into soup with lime juice.
Shred chicken with two forks (may have to remove from crockpot to do this)
Enjoy with your favorite toppings!
