White Bean Chicken Chili

Looking for something warm, cozy, and incredibly easy?

This is the recipe for you!

Chili is usually my go-to meal during the cooler months. I like this chili recipe because it’s light but still warm and cozy. You can prepare this meal in a crockpot, instapot, or on a stovetop.

I hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:

• 1 lb shredded chicken
• 3 cups chicken broth
  • I like to use bone broth with turmeric. Either are great options!

  • rinsed and drained
• 2 cups corn (frozen or canned)
• 1 onion (diced)
• 2 green bell peppers (diced)
• 1 – 2 green chilies (mild)
