Winter Soups: White Chicken Chili

 

I snagged this recipe from my friend Laura after seeing it look all delicious on her Instagram feed. I had never made White Chicken Chili before and I'm not sure if I'd ever actually eaten it! What was my problem?!

This meal was partly so much fun to make because I did so while impatiently waiting to go into labor. What a tasty distraction it was! As you can tell from the first picture, I doubled the recipe so that we could eat the leftovers for a few days in case I wasn't feeling well enough to cook. However, in the instructions below the recipe is not doubled. Thanks again for the delicious recipe Laura! We really loved it!

It's always a challenge to get decent pictures of crockpot meals because they have to be taken in the morning when the lighting isn't great!
