I change it up every time but the basic recipe is Chicken breasts, chopped hatch green chiles, green chile enchilada sauce, cumin, chicken broth, in the crock pot until cooked and then stir in cream cheese and cheddar at the end. Add corn, veggies, beans, whatever you want with cooking. Also good with some jalapeños or bacon.

Good morning! Another spooky and misty morning due to burn off into the 80's today. Best of both worlds.

I was an absolute bum yesterday. 1 minute of exercise and 3,065 steps. Ha! But totally, 100% on track for foods and all water, all day. I only moved from chair to chair reading, chasing the sun. Add a few more steps for making our meals.

Today we have softball for an early game and that's all that is on the calendar. I plan to either walk around the ball park/school during warm up hour or take a nice walk this afternoon when we get back home. I can't believe it's Sunday already and tomorrow slides right back into work out class. This week has flown by.

QoTD: Loved Berry Pickers. Just finished it. Read the sequel to Fourth Wing and of course it was less compelling and more heaving breasts and shattered breaths. My one book, one San Diego read for book club is Know my Name by Chanel Miller and I am trying to psyche myself up for it. It's tough stuff and I remember being outraged when it was in the news. If I can find a sunny spot again today, I hope to start and let the sunshine help balance me out.

Bites today

B: last of the eggroll in a bowl

L: I hope we come home from Softball to eat. I do better at home. If so, leftover beef bulgogi and salad

D: Pesto chicken and burrata with tomatoes

Peace!

Ashamed to say I buy it at Whole Foods and just dilute it with organic chicken broth 50/50 ( it?s very spicy otherwise my pouch doesn?t tolerate quite spicy anymore)

Would love to try your homemade recipe - I?m sure it?s much better

Anyone have a good recipe for white bean chicken chili ?
