This is a crock pot recipe made in two stages. First can cook all day while the final stage will take an hour before it is ready to serve. First, set your crock pot to high.

Once the onions soften, add the garlic and saute for another 2 minutes.
Transfer to a crock pot and add the Chicken Stock.
Add the spices, Chili Powder, Cumin, Black and Cayenne Pepper.
Add the Marinara Sauce and Tomato Paste and stir to combine.
Add the cheeses and the tortilla chips (crumbled) and again... Stir to combine and allow to melt (about 20 minutes set on high).
