White Chicken Chili

With the cold snap that’s hit in the last week or two I have definitely been on a soup run.  I could eat soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner, though my dinner crew can be a tough crowd sometimes if I serve too many leftovers or even different soups too many nights in a row.

This bunch needs a T-bone or burgers thrown in there to mix it up, but I’ve always got really good homemade broth that I need to put to use, so there’s always a good excuse for a soup or stew.

And, truly, any dinner that can be done in the slow cooker is a winner to me.  There’s nothing like throwing it all together while making lunches the night before, so that all I need to do in the morning is toss it in and turn it on.
