Happy Halloween from The Titanium Chef

One of my favorite things about Halloween is eating chili for dinner!  I don't know when this tradition started for me but its something I always look forward to.  I have wanted to try something other than the traditional chili and started digging around and found a healthy White Chicken Chili.  Give it a shot, its super easy to come together and is delicious.  Throw it in the crock pot before you go to work and you will come home to the most amazing smelling delicious and healthy meal  to serve to your family before you head out trick or treating!

White Chicken Chili
Makes 6 servings: 1 1/3 cups each

1 lb ground chicken
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 tsp chopped garlic
3 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp cumin
1/8 tsp ground red pepper
2 medium zucchini chopped
2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
1 can green chiles
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Cook ground chicken, onion and garlic in pan until chicken is no longer pink.  Stir in all remaining ingredients except cheese.  Heat to boiling.  Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until zucchini is tender.  Remove from heat, stir in cheese until melted.
