This Easy White Chicken Chili recipe has less than one point if you do not add any cheese. A wonderful lunch or dinner recipe if you are counting WW (Freestyle) points.
Hello Friends! I have been enjoying the season and now I am back to making a few more Weight Watcher friendly meals into my routine. I have found that it really helps when I have had a zero weight watcher point meal at least once in a while. This time of year, I want to fit into my jeans and be able to enjoy a hot latte or a baked dessert without feeling guilty.
You may remember, I have shared a Zero Points Spicy Chili recipe before and this version of a White Chicken Chili is just as tasty in my opinion. This White bean chili uses Navy beans and green chiles for a fun twist on red chili.
I do put a few chili flakes in the recipe for some spice, but you can opt to skip it. This recipe comes out to less than one point per serving (per the current Weight Watcher’s Freestyle Program) if you do not top with cheese. But I say add a sprinkle of cheese and enjoy it. It makes a wonderful, filling meal and is also perfect for football viewing parties when you want to serve something that those on WW might appreciate. Best thing is, it makes a great chili recipe even if you aren’t on WW and just want a great white bean chili recipe.
