Intro

Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken Chili is another dumb and run type recipe.  Very little effort for a great quality meal that will fill you up and keep you warm.  Slow cooker Salsa Chicken Chili is also a healthy recipe that will help with those January goals you set in December.  I made this up on the fly from what I had in the kitchen and I’m really happy with the outcome!  If you want more spicy heat double up the peppers!  If you want to add a few toppings I’d recommend Cheese, Crackers, & Sour Cream.  Don’t want to use Sour Cream then substitute that add with some Greek Yogurt!  Both taste great as a fun topping! However Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken Chili is great on its own in a bowl with a spoon!  Give it a go!
