Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili is a great recipe that will warm you up on a cold day!
Im finally getting back into a routine! The kids are in school and I have my work day set up. I have made it my priority to make sure we have a home cooked meal every night. The only problem is…after school activities.
I’m actually really happy my kids are in activities like jazz band, robotics, Girl Scouts, and more but the pick up time is always right around dinnertime. And since I’m already out of the house, it’s so easy to just grab something to eat. It’s easy, but it’s not healthy and it really breaks the budget!
So I am going back to prepping my slow cooker freezer meals. Im going to spend 1 hour in the kitchen and prep 5 meals for the week. Then all week long all I have to do is dump the bag full of food into my slow cooker and dinner is done! (Bonus – less clean up too because all the prep work was done!)
So far I have made 2 of my 5 recipes and they have been perfect! My husband and kids loved them! Plus they are simple to make and I only spent about $50 on the ingredients I needed for the week.
This recipe for Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili is the first recipe I tried. It was so flavorful and my 4th grader even took it to school the next day for lunch!

Now this is certainly different from any chile I ever ate. It would be nice to try something new.
