Pinterest Cheesy Chicken and Rice

Tried another recipe found on Pinterest, Cheesy Chicken and Rice.  It was yummy.  Here's the original recipe:
Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 large onion, chopped (I use Vidalia)
  • 1 -8 ounce box Zatarain's Yellow Rice Mix, cooked according to directions
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 - 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup (regular or fat free)
  • 1 -15 ounce can whole kernel corn, drained
Instructions
  1. Place chicken in bottom of slow cooker. Scatter chopped onion over top. Spoon cream soup over top of that. Cover and cook on low 7-8 hours or on high 3-4 hours. A few minutes before serving, add in cooked rice, corn, and cheese. Stir to combine. Serve hot.
Here is what I changed.  I didn't use the crockpot.  Had a big package of chicken breasts I wanted to cook, shred then freeze some so I boiled the chicken.  Shredded it.  Froze some.  Made Boil in Bag white rice, 2 bags.  Used taco blend shredded cheese.  I put everything in pot I cooked chicken in.  Added a bit of broth to thin it out.  Mixed all together and heated up on stove.  I consider it a success if my picky family eats it and they did.  It's a keeper.
