Green Chile Soup

Slow cooker recipe from Southern Living's Easy Weeknight Favorites:

1.5 lbs chicken breast cut into 1 inch cubes
3 (4.5 oz) cans chopped green chiles, undrained
1 (15 oz) can pinto beans, undrained
1 (14.5 oz) can stewed tomatoes undrained
2 cups water
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1 large onion chopped
1 clove garlic crushed

Toppings: sour cream, cheddar cheese, avocado, sliced green onions

Place first 10 ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH 4-6 hours or on LOW 8 hours. Serve soup with desired toppings.

Matt added fresh cilantro while cooking.

I'm guessing a serving is approx 3 points (before added toppings) depending on how much chicken is in your bowl.
