Slow Cooker Chicken with Lentils, Black Beans, Tomatoes, Carrots

1 cup lentils, not cooked, rinsed

1 ½-15 oz cans black beans, drained & rinsed (I had leftover black beans from a previous meal so that’s where the ½ can came from)

1 ½-14.5 oz cans diced roasted tomatoes with garlic with juice (I had leftover tomatoes from a previous meal so that’s where the ½ came from)

1 diced fresh tomato (cleaning out the fridge, may as well use it)

1-12 oz bag of carrot chips (was also in the fridge and needed to be used)

5 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1-32 FL oz chicken broth

Enough water to cover

 

Layered first 5 ingredients, added chicken on top, poured in broth, added enough water so the liquid covered everything.  Cooked on low for 6 hours.
