We’re still keeping it real over here at the Simple Life Mom household. Part of that means creating healthy meals with real food ingredients that are quick and easy so that we don’t feel bogged down or overwhelmed and end up eating out. This easy, dairy free White Chicken Chili Recipe is great for a weeknight meal that you enjoy because of how easy it is, and your family enjoys because of the yummy punch of flavors that it delivers.
I will often cook a whole chicken with a Texas Rub (paprika, chili powder, cumin, etc.). We will have a little bit of leftovers along with the carcass. The next day, I will simmer this with about 8 cups of water to create a flavored chicken broth that’s ready to go.
Time Saver Tip:
Another quick and easy tip for this recipe is to add green chili salsa (salsa verde) with lime.
This adds a punch of marvelous flavor and saves time, because you don’t have to chop the onions, garlic, or chilies.
