White Chicken Chili

I have been using my crock pot more and more to create healthy meals. Last night I made one that Ricky LOVED and will definitely be a staple for our household. If you're trying to eat more lean protein and vegetables and less carbs, you'll love this too. This recipe is my own adaptation of the McCormick's recipe because I wanted more veggies in it!

White Chicken Chili

Ingredients:
3 medium sized chicken breasts, chopped
one can of sweet corn
one can of white Cannellini beans
one can of black beans (I like Goya)
one chopped fresh jalapeno
one packet of White Chicken Chili seasoning (McCormick's)
3 tbsps diced garlic
onion powder
black pepper
garlic powder

Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. Bake in the oven or cook on the stove top with 1 1 tbsp olive oil. Chop chicken breasts. Place all other ingredients in the crock pot and mix with 1 cup of water. Add chicken breasts. Cook on low for 4 hours.
