This Lightened Up Jalapeno Popper Chicken Chili has all the great flavor of jalapeno poppers, but in an easy-to-make chili recipe! It’s packed with chicken and white beans for protein and fiber to keep you full all day.
In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been obsessed with two things lately: jalapeno poppers and soup! This Lightened Up Jalapeno Popper Chicken Chili combines the best of both of those things into one amazing and healthy recipe. I used Greek yogurt in place of some of the cream cheese in this recipe, so you get that same creaminess with better-for-you ingredients.
It’s packed with chicken, white beans, jalapenos, corn, and more, so not only is it super hearty and filling, it’s also super delicious! Roommate and sister-approved!
On another note, it’s Smile Sandwich’s birthday!!! Exactly one year ago I decided on a name and bought my domain. Of course I had been blogging on an off before that, and didn’t really post consistently until much later, but any excuse to celebrate a blogiversary is good enough for me!
And celebrate we shall. With Lightened Up Jalapeno Popper Chicken Chili.
Seriously. Make this tonight. It’s super, duper good! It might even be one of my favorite soup recipes I’ve ever made.
