The perfect meal for when you want something that’s really good, but don’t want to put a lot of effort into it…we’ve all had those days! Just freeze it ahead of time, so all you have to do is pour it into the slow cooker and let it cook all day! Told ya it was going to be easy!!

You’ll start out this recipe by placing all ingredients (minus the ingredients needed for the end of the cooking process) into a gallon sized freezer bag. Seal the bag, pushing out all of the excess air, and freeze until you are ready to use. I tell ya, it can’t get much easier than that!

To thaw, just place the freezer bag into a large bowl in the fridge the night before you want to prepare it. The bowl will prevent a big mess just in case your freezer bag leaks…believe me, I’ve learned from experience!

Once thawed, place all the contents of the bag into your slow cooker, stir once, cover, and cook on the hi setting for about 6 hours. Your house will smell AH-mazing!

At the end of the cooking process, add the juice of 1 lime and stir throughly. Next, add 1 cup of sour cream, mix well. Cover and cook for another 30 minutes.

Now it’s ready to serve! Top each bowl with a sprinkling of cheese, a dollop of sour cream, some chopped cilantro and DIG IN…this creamy white chicken chili recipe is like a little bowl of heaven! Doesn’t that look delicious!?

Recipe Notes

For a deeper, richer flavor (if you have the time) substitute 2 Anaheim Peppers, 1 Bell Pepper and 1 Serrano Pepper in place of the canned green chilis. Lightly rub oil all over each pepper, place on a cookie sheet. Roast at 425˚ for 10 minutes, turning half way through. Place all the peppers into a paper bag, close and let rest for 15 minutes. Peel, vein, stem and chop all of the peppers and add to the gallon freezer bag with the rest of the ingredients before freezing.
