One of my goals this year was to try new recipes- I too often get in the habit of cooking the same cycle of meals over & over again, which is funny considering that my Pinterest Boards have approximately 2,000 different meal options saved to them…
So with the weekend ahead I thought I’d start off with a tried-and-true favorite: White Chicken Chili.
I’ll be honest, this recipe is a favorite of mine for two reasons: the first being its taste, and the second being how simple it is to prepare.
Like most women, the one thing that I always seem to be lacking is time. So when I have the opportunity to enjoy a good ‘dump’ recipe that cooks easily in my favorite slow-cooker, I take it!
This White Chicken Chili recipe, in particular, is a macro-friendly meal that I can dress up or dress down depending on my mood. It’s filling yet not sit-in-your-stomach-heavy.. appropriate especially for this unseasonably warm fall we seem to be experiencing.
