Salsa chicken chili

Salsa chicken chili 

We don't like to throw any food away 
 around here and I love letting my crock pot cook for me.
So I love this recipe not only is it yummy
  it uses last night dinner to make tomorrows lunch with my crock pot. 

Ingredients 
Left over chicken from "The Best Chicken I ever made"
1 15 ounce jar of salsa 
2 cups chicken broth (we use organic from costco)
1 Bay leaf 
1 onion chopped 
2 cans northern beans 
salt/pepper
1 tsp garlic 

Pull off the remaining chicken from last night's dinner shredding any large hunks as you go 
Chop the onion 
put everything together in the crock pot cook on high for 1 hour 
then low for at least 5 or more hours 
since we are trying to lose weight and not having any carbs after 2 we have this for lunch only. I've estimated one cup of this chili around 400 calories give or take.

You can garnish with cheese and sour cream or Greek yogurt ,but if you are trying to lose weight skip the extras ! Extra's on your food means extra's on you !
