When placing the chicken in the bags to freeze or directly in slow cooker to prepare same day, do you cube it first or leave it whole?
Linda Lee says
How much sausage is used, is there a weight? What kind of sausage, breakfast, smoked, Italian? I’m assuming the broth is chicken broth?

I am also curious about what kind of sausage. I want to cook up this meals next Monday when I’m off work and kids are at camp 🙂
Maria Beauton says
Why did the recipe list tell us to buy so many cans of black beans when this recipe was the only one that required it???
UG …. WTF?

Jessi says
Probably because it was a Costco list- they sell an 8 pack.
If you buy at a normal grocery store, there were lots of extras on that list.
Jen W says
2 cans are used for the chicken tortilla soup as well, with 4 cans on the “leftover ingredients” list. You could buy 4 cans at the store, but I think the idea is to just shop at one place.
Colleen says
MB-It only has one 15oz can of beans listed.
Jennifer says
The sausage is listed in the shopping list. Apple sausage.
Jennifer says
CHICKEN apple sausage 🙂

I have been in Cosco many times and have yet to see gluten free spices…most are contaminated with gluten..also you should specify other things that need to be gluten fee I your recipies
Melanie says
She didn’t have the spices on the Costco list–probably BECAUSE Costco doesn’t carry GF spices. I think she assumes you will already have the spices acceptable for your particular diet.
melody says
Do you cook any of the chicken in the recipes before putting in the ziploc bags?
Jenn K says
Melody – nope! Just throw them in raw with the other ingredients and cook when ready!
Daryl says
Do we cut up the chicken first?
Jenn K says
Daryl – no need. Just shred it or cut into chunks after cooking to make life easier! 🙂
janine says
Do u rinse the can of beans before adding to ziploc?

Made this for tonight’s dinner and it was great. The kid’s don’t usually like soups but they liked this. I used the Costco Chicken/Apple sausage and subbed garbanzo beans for the black beans. Thanks for the great recipe!

Hubby and I really enjoy this one but I use andouille sausage, which has more kick, and serve it over brown rice. Really makes the dish, in our opinion. Of course, our 2 small children don’t enjoy the spice so we just take out some chicken and serve it to them separately with some of the rice and a veggie. Spicier for us but still kid friendly BC the chicken retains its mild flavor. I’m wondering if I could take it a step further and transform this recipe into more of a gumbo on some nights. It’s definitely in the regular rotation, thanks!
