Creamy Crockpot White Chicken Chili
A cozy, comforting bowl of creamy chili that practically makes itself in your slow cooker.
recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like coming home to the smell of a warm meal waiting for you. This white chicken chili has become a family favorite because it is so hearty and simple to put together on a busy day.
I love using a mix of beans and sweet corn to give it a lovely texture. If you want to make it extra creamy, you can stir in the cream cheese right at the end before serving.

💡 Tips
This chili tastes even better the next day after the flavors have had time to meld in the fridge. Serve it with a handful of crushed tortilla chips, fresh cilantro, or a slice of warm cornbread on the side. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
