This is the base, but you can add veggies if you'd like. Some of the ones I use are zucchini, corn, butternut squash, potato, carrots. I always chop my veggies small and I just use whatever kind I have. Again, you can add more meat if you like it meatier. You can adjust the recipe to your liking, including the seasonings. Best served with fresh chopped cilantro and sour cream. Throw all the ingredients in the Crock-Pot, place on LOW setting for 4 hours
