I really like this recipe for red chicken chili in the slow cooker because I don’t always have precooked ground meat in the freezer to throw into the slow cooker for a chili. Sometimes, I don’t want a white chicken chili. This is a very typical chili recipe for the slow cooker using chicken breasts in place of the ground meat. No pre-cooking required!

It is funny! I fixed a bowl for my teenage son to eat. When I handed it to him, I asked him if he wanted a fork or spoon. He gave me an odd look then said, “More chips!” LOL
