White Chicken Chili

This white chicken chili is heart warming and so simple to make!

Confession: If I could I would only use my Crock Pot to cook most nights of the week.  Is that bad?  It’s just so darn easy to throw everything in there, set the timer and go about your day.  When it’s done your meal is ready for you!  Being as busy as we are we do use it often, and this white chicken chili is one of our favorite recipes to make. 

The ingredients are simple, there’s very little prep work that goes into it, and it tastes oh so good!  Plus it has a ton of protein from the chicken and beans.

* 1 tbsp chili powder
* 1 tsp cumin
* 1 tsp onion powder
* 1/2 tsp garlic powder

* Add all the ingredients (except the cream cheese) to a Crock Pot and stir.

    I make chicken chili all the time but I never thought to have a creamy base (mine is tomato-based). This is awesome! Thanks!

    I love it! We really don’t eat beef anymore so this looks exactly like chilli that I would eat if I still at beef with chicken. I pinned this one for sure!

    Just curious about the cream cheese, you put it in the whole time?? I’ve always been told to put it in the last hour. but this recipe sounds delish!

    Is this spicy? I have a 4 year old and an almost 1 year old that I’d like to make this for…

    Do you put three whole raw chicken breasts in the crock pot?? Or are they cooked?

  • Typical morning with these three. 🥰 Mornings are my absolute favorite time with them. My second favorite is bedtime. #justkiddingsortof ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our mornings are much slower now that we homeschool. It’s not at all easy. It’s actually harder than I imagined it would be. But I love that we can go at our own pace, take breaks during the day for adventures, and use all sorts of awesome tools for learning. We can change things when we want and I can teach to my child’s likes and abilities. I always thought I would send them back to school when our travels are over, but now I’m not so sure. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have you ever considered homeschooling, or do you? What are your thoughts on the subject?
  • Throwback to our Hawaii trip. We talked about spending a month there this winter. I wouldn’t be mad at that idea. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Are you a lover of the heat or colder weather? I usually prefer the colder temps, because they mean snow. But we have spent a lot of time in the mountains so I’m soaking up all the time we’re getting in Palm Springs.
  • My body has been greatly confused by the 90 degrees in November weather. 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This guy y’all. 🥰 He is spicy and has a newfound obsession with Star Wars. He is snuggly for an hour in the morning, and independent the rest of the day. I never knew a child could be as busy as he is. He’s definitely testing boundaries these days, but when he does something wrong he says “I’m sorry” in the sweetest voice and damn it is hard to stay mad at that. ❤️
  • I almost wasn’t going to post this photo for 2 reasons. 1️⃣ Because it’s not a great picture. 2️⃣ Because you can see my cellulite when you zoom in. But I decided to share for that exact reason. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We all struggle with insecurities. Even at the best shape of my life I still had things that bothered me about my body. But y’all, these insecurities do not define us! They don’t make us any less of a wife, mom, sister, daughter, or friend. People love you because you are kind and loving and funny and a good person! No one gives a shit about the cellulite on your thighs except you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We need to stop defining our worth based on how we look. We are all different and those differences make this world such an amazing and unique place.
  • “You’ve been really absent lately. Why aren’t you posting more?” Because of these two. Need I say more? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I will say more. 🤣 #canthelpmyself ❤️ Anyone who tries to make you feel bad for being present with your kids at this young age is not someone who needs to be in your life. We are on this travel journey to not only see the world, but to spend time together while we still can. And yes I 100% understand I made this decision knowing full well that I would be spending 24 hours a day, every day with my kids. Is it always easy? Hell no! But it is absolutely worth it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ LIFE 👏🏼 IS 👏🏼SHORT! 👏🏼 I know more than most how short it can be. So while I may be able to find a few moments here and there to comment and like, I’m also busy making memories that I will cherish till the end of my days. ❤️ And that is something more valuable than posting every day to a social media platform. #sorrynotsorry😂
  • CONFESSION: I have always been self-conscious of my smile. My lower jaw is crooked, and working in the coffee business for years, plus my love for 🍷 left my teeth a little lack luster. 🙈 I have sensitive teeth so other at home whitening kits didn’t work for me. Thanks to @smilebrilliant and their sensitive whitening gel I am able to have a whiter smile. 😁 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can use the code afitmomslifeblog15 to get 15% off your at home kit! #smilefearlessly #whileiwhiten # smilebrilliant
  • “Don’t wait for the perfect moment to come before you start working toward you goal. Just start right where you are.” -Me ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Y’all, why do we continue to say “I’ll start Monday.” “I’ll be ready next month to get going.” Why? Don’t wait, start today. Start tomorrow! Make a plan and just start! What are you going to start today?!
  • I’ve been missing my dad something fierce lately. Anytime a memory is triggered I’m in tears. I think about his last weeks and how much pain he was in, but he never once complained. He really was the strongest person I’ve ever met. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This photo was taken a few weeks before he passed. He was so weak and had lost so much weight by this point, but he still made it to Easter. He knew his days were numbered, and he thanked the family for being there and for loving him. 😥 I wish I had his voice recorded, he had a booming announcers voice and the best laugh. Squeeze your loved ones tight friends.
