Awesome easy healthy crockpot recipe!!

I got this recipe from the newsletter at Whole Foods- it's very good.  One tip I'd say is to soak your dry beans overnight, I didn't and they were still a little too firm for me when we ate it, but after 3 more hours in the crock after we ate they were perfect.   If I had soaked them they'd have been good at dinnertime. 

The cauliflower kind of melts and falls apart and makes it creamy- you can't really tell there is cauliflower in it at all once it's done.  The chicken shreds up so nicely and the boneless skinless thighs give it a really good flavor!  It makes a LOT (my crockpot was almost overflowing)- we ate it for dinner last night, I have 2 lunches for this week, and I put a whole batch in the freezer for dinner another night in the next few weeks.  Win, win, win, win!!

 

WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 (16 oz) bag dried cannellini Beans, picked through
1 (16 oz) bag frozen corn
2 or 3 poblano peppers (or 2 green bell peppers),

    YUMMMY!  Was it spicy at all?  My kiddos won't eat anything spicy, but I could reduce the chilis if it had some kick.  Thanks!

    I have this all ready to go in my crock pot for tomorrow!!

     But I couldn't find cannellini beans so I went with great white beans. Hope it's just as good! soaked them for over 3 hours but wanted to throw it all in the crock pot to be ready so they'll be in the broth overnight.

     Thanks for the recipe!
