Crockpot White Chicken Chili

This is a modification of my previous Savory White Chicken Chili, but this one has become our favorite version. It has become a favorite, and I have brought it to different potlucks and had people comment about how much they like it. My kids enjoy eating their chili with pasta. Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients

1-2 pounds chicken breasts

1 medium onion

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 cans cannellini beans, drained

1 can corn, drained

4.5 oz can chopped green chiles

1 Tbsp chili powder

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp sugar

1 1/2 cups chicken broth

3/4 cup sour cream

Directions

Add all ingredients except sour cream to crockpot. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours. Shred chicken and add sour cream before serving.

Vegetarian version: my vegetarian daughter loves this chili! It's one of her favorites! Leave out the chicken and replace the chicken broth with veggie broth, and that's it!

Allergies and Intolerances

My son, Daniel previously had allergies to egg whites and peanuts. I am lactose intolerant. My nephews have allergies to many foods. I will try my best to label things to help those with allergies since I know it's difficult finding recipes sometimes when someone in your home has common food allergies. Make sure you check labels yourself. If it's marked soy-free or nut-free, it only means it doesn't have the soy or nut protein in it, not necessarily the oils. Look for dairy-free, egg-free, gluten/wheat-free, nut-free, and soy-free labels.

Egg replacements

If you need an egg free recipe, I have some great egg replacements. Now these really won't work in recipes that require a lot of eggs, like a meringue or cheesecake, but they do work well in most recipes I've ever tried.

Egg replacement #1: use 1 Tbsp ground flax seed and 3 Tbsp of water in place of 1 egg. Why this works? I don't know, but flax seed is extremely healthy for you, full of lots of omega fatty acids, so this is my preferred substitute.

Egg replacement #2: Boil 1 cup of water and 1 packet of unflavored gelatin together. In it's liquid state, use 3 1/2 Tbsp of this in place of 1 egg.

I have found sometimes one works better than the other. The flax seed seems to work better overall, I believe, but my mother-in-law made Christmas cookies with the gelatin and you couldn't even tell the difference.
