Buffalo Chicken Chili, Trim Healthy Mama S or FP

Here is a fun new chili/soup to add to your rotation! This was a huge hit with my family. I wish I would have made this recipe to go with my fill your freezer Friday’s. It was that good. We have finally entered into soup season here in Texas (well, that comes and goes here as we get cold and then we can be in the 90’s two days later). This isn’t spicey either. But you can definitely make it spicey if you want to.

This is a crockpot recipe, but you can just cook it on the stove-top if you want/need to.

This recipe would also be great cooked in a pressure cooker as well. This buffalo chicken chili has the flavors of the favorite finger food, chicken wings, but in a chili instead! You can spice it up or keep it mild. My hubby made his bowl really spicey. The hardest part of the recipe was chopping the veggies, that’s it. This recipe is so simple.

Let’s talk trim healthy mama s and fuel pull.

If you want to pull back on the fat for this recipe, don’t add any cheese to your bow, and only use 1/2 a block of reduced fat cream cheese. This chili is very flavorful and you don’t really need to add much to it. But, you can add lots if you want to. I didn’t have any but I had planned on adding blue cheese crumbles to the top of mine. You can jalapenos, ranch, cheddar cheese, cilantro, green onions, even bacon! This simple twist on a classic finger food is sure to be a hit!
