Quick + Easy + Nutritous
This white bean chicken chili is not only quick easy to make, it is loaded with nutritious ingredients. The great northern white beans are packed with fiber and protein, while the chicken breast and chickpea noodles also increase the protein value of this meal leaving you satiated and content.
Flavorful and easy to modify to taste
While this recipe is made gluten-free, the gluten-free noodles can easily be substituted with another favorite soup noodle. Also, the salsa verde used in this recipe is mild, but add a “hot” version for a little extra spice! Still not spicy enough? Add some Jalapeno’s for more “punch.”
My favorite ingredient brands
Great Northern Beans
These beans are gluten-free, lower in sodium, contain no added sauces, and have 7g of plant-based protein per serving and are an excellent source of fiber. They are also cooked and canned in the USA
Salsa Verde
A blend of green tomatoes, onions, peppers & spices. This is the mild version, but can be "spiced up" to taste with additional red chili powder.
Chopped Green Chiles
These green chiles will add a mild spice to the recipe making it flavorful and delicious! There is also a "hot" version.
Chicken Bone Broth
Choose bone broth over plain chicken broth. Bone broth is rich in protein, collagen, electrolytes, vitamins, and it's more flavorful than chicken broth.
Gluten-free Plant Based Pasta
These are by far my favorite noodles to cook with when I'm in the mood for pasta. They are flavorful and one serving contains 12 grams of protein!
