Slow Cooker Chicken Chili

I don't know about you, but I seriously LOVE my crock pot! As a busy mom, I don't always have the time to cook a meal. Mostly because my energetic 1 year old can't sit still long enough for me to make something. There's nothing better than ending a long day knowing that dinner is ready and there are no dishes to clean, not to mention the house smells like I've been slaving away all day when hubby comes home! 

Here is one of my favorite clean eating recipes, Chicken Chili! Being busy does not mean you have to sacrifice being healthy! I love chili on a cold, winter day! 

Here's what you'll need:

• 1 28oz can diced tomatoes
• 1 14 oz can diced tomatoes with chilis
• 
  1 16 oz can black beans
• 1 16 oz can chick peas
• 1 cup Veggie Stock
• 2 large chicken breasts (can be frozen)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tsp cumin
• 2 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
• plain Greek yogurt (optional to sub for sour cream)
• shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Here's how to make it:

Place all ingredients, except sour cream, in the crock pot for 6 to 8 hours (8 hrs if chicken is frozen) on low. Remove chicken, shred, and return to crock pot. Sever with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese and top with a dollop of plain greek yogurt. Enjoy!
