Slow-Cooker Salsa Chicken

This is a modified/simplified version of a sparkrecipes.com dish.
Also a super-quick meal to start on the way out in the morning.

The cheddar cheese soup is optional if you are looking to reduce the sodium content; just add a little more sour cream if you desire a creamier texture.
