Is your busy schedule getting in the way of healthy meals?

Try this easy, and tasty, crock-pot creation:

Crock-pot Chicken Chili

Makes a big pot (8 or more servings )

Time to cook: 7 to 8 hours, plus 15 minutes

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs

2 (14 oz) cans no salt added diced tomatoes with spicy green peppers or chillies added

1 (8 oz) can no salt added crushed tomatoes

1 envelope low-salt chili seasoning

1 (15 oz) can Black beans (no salt added)

1 (15 oz) can Red kidney beans (no salt added)

1 (15 oz) can corn (no salt added)

Reduced fat sour cream

Fresh cilantro

Here’s what I like about this recipe, you just dump stuff in!

  1. Turn crock-pot on, low setting.
  2. Pour in diced and crushed tomatoes.
  3. Pour in Chili seasoning.
  4. Stir well.
  5. Place chicken thighs into crock-pot (don’t cut them, put them in whole)
  6. Stir again.
  7. Put the top on the pot and walk away.
  8. Come back 15 minutes before you want to serve the chili.
  9. Stir to break up chicken.
  10. Rinse the beans and corn.
  11. Pour beans and corn into pot and stir
  12. Replace lid and continue to cook for 15 minutes.
  13. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a sprig of cilantro — and maybe some whole grain rolls!

Remember to store left overs in glass or ceramic containers, not plastic.

Enjoy!
