White Bean Chicken Chili is a nice change from traditional tomato-based chili once in a while. And it’s a snap to make!
I really don’t make this often enough! It’s a great combination of protein and fiber, plus this chicken chili is easier on those tummies who don’t handle tomatoes and green peppers as well.
Simple, healthy & fast…it doesn’t get any better than that! There is no added fat, dairy, or gluten. Even yeast-free diets can enjoy a bowl of this delicious chili.
A perfect meal for a busy night or when you have leftover chicken. You could even substitute in turkey after the holidays!
I served this chili with some fresh homemade cornbread.
White bean chicken chili is a big hit at my house. After my husband took his first bite, he asked if I had made a double batch…SCORE!
