It's a Chili Night!

Okay, I have to admit I'm not really a huge fan of cold weather.  I'm definitely more of a summer girl (which I credit to the fact that I was born in July, am in love with summer vacation, and am obsessed with the beach), so when the weather gets cold I'm usually not very thrilled about it.  Today was no exception, although I decided to make the most of a cold and dreary day by making a warm bowlful of yumminess for dinner. 

And considering there's not a lot of excitement to update on right now, I thought I'd share the recipe with you!  It's called White Chicken Chili and I got the recipe from one of my favorite Kansans in the world about 5 years ago when I was still in college.  (Oh wow, that just reminded me that I haven't been in college in FIVE years!)   My favorite part about this meal (besides the fact that it tastes oh so good) is that it is SUPER easy to make.  I mean seriously, who doesn't love a meal that only requires boiling some chicken breasts, throwing in a bunch of canned goods, and warming it all up to perfection.  YUM.

Here's what you need to make this quick, easy, and super delicious chili on a cold night like tonight:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts--boiled & shredded

2 lb. Velveeta (I use 2% because it's less fat than the regular Velveeta...God bless processed cheese)

2 cans pinto beans--drained

2 cans Ro-Tel

2 cans corn--drained

1 can chicken broth

Tortilla chips (for dippin')

Step 1: Boil the chicken until cooked through and shred with a fork.

Step 2: Combine chicken, Velveeta, and ALL cans into a big old pot over medium-high heat (stir frequently because that Velveeta likes to stick if you don't...)

Step 3: Heat until warm and bubbly and voila...

DELICIOUSNESS IN A BOWL!!!  I love this chili with tortilla chips...which obviously makes it even healthier than it already is.  But on a night like tonight, who couldn't use a few extra calories??!  :)  Enjoy!
