It’s a cold day in Florida, guys. Despite hating snow and dispising cold weather, I like the cold weather in Florida. IDK, maybe I’m just weird.
There’s just something about this time of the year that makes you want to wrap yourself in a cozy blanket, snuggle up next to your loved ones, and eat something warm. Obviously, I had to climb my short ass onto the counter and get the crockpot down so we can eat all the comfort foods.
Ingredients
- 4 cups of vegetable broth (or chicken)
- 2-3 large chicken breasts or 5-6 chicken tenders (raw and thawed)

- 1/3 cup cilantro
- 2 cloves of garlic
Seasonings:
- 1 TSP cumin

Toppings: (optional)

- A few slices of jalapeno
Instructions:
- Place chicken at bottom of crock pot.
- Pour vegetable broth over chicken.
- Add in green chilies, onion, cilantro, beans and seasonings
- Cook 2-4 hours on high heat, or 4-6 hours on low heat.
- Remove chicken, let cool and shred it.

- Fill up a bowl of your delicious chili, add toppings, and enjoy!
