In a 5- or 6-quart slow cooker, place 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Sauté the chopped onion, peppers, garlic, and zucchini for about 6 minutes and pour over breasts
Pour the chicken broth and seasoning over the top and cook for 5-7 hours.
Take out the chicken and shred and return to pot.  Take out the zucchini and some of the broth and puree in a blender or food processor then return to the pot. Add the beans and heat for 30 minutes.  Add the sour cream and cook for an additional 30 minutes.  Serve warm with the toppings


Haylee’s Note:
I am surprised the I haven’t added this recipe to my collection yet.  I have been requested several times to make this.  I have done several versions, and this recipe is actually two recipes that I kind of merged together to make my own thing, and I think it is probably my favorite.
