White Chicken Chili

Oh hello there! Long time no talk! Can we ignore the fact that I took a 3 month hiatus and pretend I was never gone? You know, like those real friends you don’t see for a long time but the minute you see them again it’s seems like yesterday?

Yes please, I would like that 🙂

Okay, let’s just say life was a little hectic for a while and time was very limited. If you follow me on instagram, you probably already know that my hubby and I bought a house and moved in right after Thanksgiving. Well after getting settled in, plus the holidays, I just needed a break from being busy busy busy!  But I do miss this little blog of mine so I’m back!

This year’s goal is to simplify my life (well, honestly I have said that before and I failed big time) but so far I’ve done a good job! I’ll leave the details on the changes I’ve done so far for another post.

I do want to focus on this recipe though since it’s so delicious, healthy & very easy to make. I have no doubt you’ll want to make this over and over again! The key for a great meal is to use high quality, fresh ingredients as much as possible.

This White Chicken Chili is one of the most delicious recipes I have made lately. It’s amazing how something that you throw in a pot together can come out so delicious and it’s healthy at the same time! The original recipe calls for chicken thighs but I made it a little more healthy and used Kroger’s boneless & skinless chicken breast. I also omitted the sour cream as a topping but you’re more than welcome to use it if that’s your thing……or you could use non fat greek yogurt as a healthy alternative 🙂

I hope you enjoy it friends!

This recipe was made in collaboration with Kroger/Fry’s Grocery Store. I’m very selective with whom I partner up with as I don’t want to overwhelm my readers with products & sponsorships. Therefore, if you see a company or product I’m working with, it’s because they rock! They help this little blog of mine keep producing delish recipes and showing you the things I love.
