Perfect Fall Recipe

I recently saw Jill post something about a "skinny chili" recipe from Skinny Taste

I figured with the cooler weather, it would be the perfect weekend to throw everything in the crockpot and try this recipe!

I am so glad that I did. 

It is AMAZING!

And easy, too! Which is perfect for my crazy schedule during the week. 

You just throw everything into the crock pot, and then put the chicken on top. With about 30 minutes left, you take the chicken out and shred it. 

I cheated and had some jalapeño tortilla chips with my soup today at lunch. AH-MAZING!
