Chicken Chili

Great recipe for using up left over chicken. I even let my 4-year-old daughter help me toss ingredients in the pot and mix before I turn on the heat. This recipe also freezes well so consider freezing your left overs and using later to avoid left-over burn out and safe time in the future.

Time 10 minutes
Serves 6 (2 cup servings)

• 2 tbsp minced garlic
• 4 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed (~24 oz)
• 1 - 28 oz can of diced tomato
• 4 cups of any kind of beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 cups corn or 1 can of corn, drained
• 1 cup water
• 2 tbsp. chili powder
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp oregano

1. Combine all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil. Add more water for a thinner consistency if desired. Top with lowfat cheese, light sour cream, chives or 1-2 crushed tortilla chips if desired.
