White Bean Chili

I bought a crock pot last week (yeah I am late to the game on that one).

I have been pinning crock pot recipes forever and finally decided to give it a try.

Beano on hand. Not kidding. Ask my kids.

Anyway, here it is

White Chicken Chili
Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts
½ cup low sodium chicken broth
1 can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of white northern beans, drained and rinsed
1 undrained can of mild rotel
1 undrained can of sweet corn kernels
1 minced clove of garlic
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 ½ teaspoons cumin
1 tablespoon hot Mexican chili powder or regular chili powder
12 oz reduced fat cream cheese (a block and a half)

What you’ll do:

In a crockpot, combine chicken broth, drained beans, tomatoes, corn, garlic and seasonings. Place the chicken breasts on top of the mixture. Cover; cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours. After cooking time is up, remove chicken and cut or shred into bite-sized pieces. Return to the chili and mix thoroughly. Add in the blocks of cream cheese and mix gently, cook or keep on warm for about 20 more minutes. Cream cheese should melt, mix thoroughly and enjoy!

    Welcome to the world of Beano, etc. One of the joys of getting “older”. (I assume the boys are not at that stage yet…although thinking just being boys is enough to get into a contest to see who can contribute to the gassy results the best.)

    You crack me up with your gassy self!

    This looks good. I’ve never tried white chili with cream cheese in it. It looks thick, which is cool. My family loves white chili.
