This is the perfect recipe when you need to throw something into the Crock Pot for a quick meal!

If you don’t want to make it in the Crock Pot, you can easily make it on the stove. I’d recommend baking the chicken in the oven for 20 minutes at 400 degrees and then shredding it. Let everything simmer together on the stove for a while and your soup is good to go!

This soup tastes great with tortilla chips or biscuits. (Gluten free of course!)

Creative Ways to Use Leftover Chili

Too much chili? Chili is the ideal dish for leftovers, and it is just as appetizing on the second day as it was on the first. You can also ‘repurpose’ it into other dishes, so no one gets bored. Depending on the size of your family, you might even get two or three meals out of one slow cooker.

Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator and enjoy a second helping for lunch the next day. You may even have enough to make tasty chili dogs for tomorrow night’s dinner. Also, consider serving the chili over a bed of freshly cooked spaghetti noodles, it’s a specialty of Cincinnati and surprisingly delicious.
