Chicken Stew-ish ..... Soup-ish ..... ish

This recipe is inspired by a Chicken Stew Recipe my longggggggggg time friend Jennifer sent me.  Thanks Jen!!!
I will make that recipe, but I didn't have all of the ingredients and I wanted it like yesterday .... which is when I ate it :-)
So here is my CrockPot take on it!  Enjoy.

Ingredients:
4 chicken thighs (with bone and skin - I removed the skin after it was done cooking)
1 can cut carrots (I hate canned, but it's all I had - I will use 2 cups fresh next time)
1 can cannellini beans (use any beans you want)
1 can peeled plum tomatoes, drained
2 cups of water (approx)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
LOTS OF GOYA ADOBO
garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder, paprika

Line your pot (-:

Add oil and then sprinkle adobo to create a yummy barrier between the thigh and the liner.  Add garlic and onion powder, paprika, and black pepper (more than you would usually).  Place chicken in pot. 

Sprinkle adobo over the tops of the chicken.  Toss in beans, carrots, and tomatoes. 

Add water to pot until just the chicken is covered, about 2 cups - maybe more.** 

  Cook on low for 8-10 hours.  I served it with yellow rice.  Enjoy! 

** If you are using fresh carrots, add enough water to cover them as well.

Creamy Tomato Meatball Soup

Broth Ingredients:
1 35oz can of Crushed Tomatoes
1 cup Cream of Tomato Soup (I use Trader Joe's)
2 cups Beef bouillon
2 tsp grated parmesean
salt, black pepper, garlic powder

Soup Vegetables:
3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
1 medium onion, cut anyway you like

Meatball Ingredients:
1lb 96/4 ground beef
3 tbsp grated parmesean
1 egg (I use brown eggs)
1/2 cup Bread Crumbs
dried basil, oregano, salt, black pepper, cumin, garlic powder

Line your crockpot with the liner :)

Add in crushed tomatoes and creamy tomato soup

Mix all of the meatball ingredients together and make the meatballs as big or small as you desire.

Place them into the crockpot.

Take all of your veggies and place/scatter them on top of the soup/meatballs.

Pour enough bouillon over into the crock pot to cover the veggies.

Sprinkle seasonings and grated parm.

Cover and Cook on med-low 8 hours.
