There is no question that the colder weather is here and that it’s here to stay! I love to use my crockpot during the cold months makes dinner easy and the house smells amazing!! Even though my family isn’t on WW it is important to me that they eat healthily as well. This soup is one of those great healthy soups that just hits the spot! Now I make this in my 8-quart crockpot so I always have leftovers for lunches and to freeze for later!

WHAT IS Weight Watchers?
When starting a new weight loss program or diet change, consult a doctor or physician about personal health concerns. It is a good idea to have blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and hormones checked at a physical before and during being on the WW program.
New to Weight Watchers?? Also known as WW, a weight loss program uses points assigned to food to track and lose weight. When you sign up, you take an assessment that will assign you a point value to eat daily and a weekly allowance. You can carry over 4 points from the day into your weekly budget, which is handy when you need more points.
I have been on Weight Watchers since 2011. They have had Points Plus Value, WW Smartpoints, Blue Plan, Green Plan, Purple Plan, WW Personal Points, and now Weight Watchers Points. The new Weight Watchers Simplified plan is the new program launched in November 2022 similar to previous plans like WW Smartpoints, with some color plans. ( You can see the Weight Watchers Zero Point Foods 2023 -> here)
No matter the WW plan, they work to help you learn healthy eating habits. I have hit lifetime goal weight several times but stopped operating the plan and tracking, so the weight does creep back on. You stay on as a lifetime member, working towards your goal. Head on over ->here to get a month for free.

How To Make Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili:
If using fresh chicken breast in a pot of water boil a can a chicken broth and a half can of water. I sliced my breast up into three chunks and boiled it in a pot. Once it was fully cooked I pulled out the chicken and shredded it in my Kitchen Aid Mixer. (If you haven’t done this before check out more information -> here)
Keep the broth for the next step.
Spray your crockpot with a nonstick spray. You can also use a crockpot liner instead for an easy clean up as well.
Throw in the chicken and the broth, and add more water later if needed.
Using a strainer strain out your white beans and your peppers.
Chop up your onion, green onion, and cilantro if necessary.
Throw all other ingredients in your slow cooker except the cornstarch and hot water.
Give it a good stir and set to low.
Allow to cook for about 4-6 hours and about half an hour before you want to eat in a separate bowl mix together the cornstarch and hot water.
Pour the cornstarch and water into the chili and mix it up.
Allow the chili to cook on low for about half an hour before stirring.
Serve and top with what you would like!!
I choose cheese on mine and also dipped tortilla chips into it! Great way to use up your points or keep it zero points and eat as is.
