White Chicken Chili

Chili is a fun thing to make for the family when it’s getting colder outside. It’s also a fun thing to have for potlucks and Holidays!

Imagine yourself… sitting on the couch in a warm, cozy sweater with a blanket on your lap, watching a Holiday movie while eating a delicious bowl of chili.


You can have this image and the chili can be amazing. Try out this White Chicken Chili recipe.


First, you’ll want to cook the chicken. When the chicken cools off then shred it into smaller pieces. This chicken goes in the chili so make it as big or small as you’d like.

 

Dice up the onions and put them in a pot with 8 tablespoons of butter. Cook the onions until the butter is melted.

 

 

Slowly stir in the flour and mix for three minutes. After the three minutes then gradually add chicken broth and the half and half. Bring this mixture to a boil and then simmer for five minutes.

 

Stir in tabasco sauce, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the drained beans and drained green chilis.

 

 

Next, stir in the cheese and sour cream.

 

 

Put the shredded chicken in a crock pot. Pour the chili mixture over the chicken and stir well. Put the crock pot on low for 4 hours.

 

Serve warm. Another option is to dip tortilla chips into the chili and eat it that way.

Meet Heather Martin

 
The sterile scent of hospitals, the hushed, hopeful whispers, and the gnawing fear that lives in every waiting room – these became the unwanted backdrop of my life. It wasn't a single event, but a relentless series of challenges that slowly, profoundly, reshaped my understanding of health and ultimately, my purpose.

It began with my own daughter's cancer diagnosis. The helplessness I felt was amplified a thousandfold. As we navigated her treatment, I scrutinized every aspect of her care, seeking not just survival, but thriving. I began to ask different questions, looking beyond the conventional to see how diet, lifestyle, and a holistic approach could support her body through the immense challenges she faced.

Then, the world tilted on its axis with my beloved father. His terminal cancer diagnosis was a crushing blow, an unyielding reality that traditional medicine, for all its marvels, couldn't alter. We watched, we hoped, we grieved. In the midst of that raw pain, a seed of curiosity took root: Was there more to healing than what we were being told?

My own body then sent a jarring message. I experienced a hemiplegic migraine, an terrifying event that starkly mimicked stroke-like symptoms. The sudden loss of function, the fear, the uncertainty – it was a profound wake-up call. It forced me to confront my own health, which I had unconsciously neglected while caring for others. It was in that moment of vulnerability that I truly understood the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit.

I realized then that I didn't just want to heal; I wanted to understand why we get sick and how to build true, resilient health from the ground up. I wanted to change the trajectory of my own life, and more importantly, my family's life, away from chronic illness and towards vibrant well-being.

This intense, personal journey ignited an unshakeable passion within me. I devoured knowledge, exploring functional nutrition, mind-body practices, and the profound impact of lifestyle on health. I became an integrative health practitioner because I couldn't keep this newfound understanding to myself. My deepest desire is to guide others through their own health challenges, to empower them with the knowledge and tools to create their own new beginnings, and to help them rewrite their family's health story, just as I've strived to do for my own. It's not just a profession; it's a calling born from love, loss, and a relentless hope for a healthier future for all.
