The Best White Chicken Chili

Since starting Stay Fit Mom back in January I’ve been waiting for Fall to share some of my favorite Fall time family recipes.  Last week I shared our traditional Halloween Meatball Soup Recipe and this week I’m sharing another, White Chicken Chili. I have given this family recipe a new name, The Best White Chicken Chili, because that’s exactly what it is- The Best!
I didn’t include the Greek yogurt in the recipe, but it’s a must!  Once you stir it in it makes it nice and creamy, and white!

I’ve already altered this family recipe slightly to make it “skinnier”.  This recipe originally called for heavy whipping cream and sour cream.  I don’t know about you but those two things I usually try and avoid if possible.  When I lost the baby weight last time around one of my favorite substitutes for sour cream was Greek yogurt.  I honestly don’t notice a difference when used in recipes or mixed with a little salsa for Mexican inspired dishes. It’s a great way to make a small change in your diet right away and is actually packed with protein.

I made a double batch of this last Wednesday so I could photograph it for this post and take it to work for lunch.  Eating it for lunch and dinner it only lasted 2 days!  Friday evening when my husband was gone coaching football the kids and I went to the store for more chicken so we could make another double batch! Like I said, this is The Best White Chicken Chili.
