Slow Cooker Latin Chicken W/ Sweet Potatoes and Black Beans image

From Good Housekeeping magazine. I am cooking it right now, so I haven't tried it, but it sounds so good! I substituted chicken breasts for the thighs and 1/2 tsp of chipotles in adobo for the paprika.

I'm allergic to black beans. Can I substitute another type of bean?

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the sweet potatoes and black beans, and they didn't even notice that they were eating chicken.
