CROCK POT MEXICAN STEW from Christy

Christy is a cousin of mine. She lives and dies by her crock pot so she emailed these to me from memory.

Ingredients:
2 cans creamed corn
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles
1 small bag frozen corn
1 can sliced potatoes (then she sliced them some more)
2 cups chicken broth (or 1 small can)
2 big handfuls rice (used brown)

Spices to Taste:
dried/minced onion ('cause I hate chopping)
red pepper flakes
garlic
Tobasco
Cayenne pepper

She also added one can of black beans (drained). This one has to cook longer since the rice is dry... took about 5 hours on HIGH.
You could also cook the rice before if you have time.
They like thicker soup, so she only added enough chicken broth for the rice to soak up, then a little more right before she served it.
Check it around 3 hours to see what it tastes like and add more spices.
