White Chicken Stew with Homemade Tortilla Chips

March 18, 2018 by Dawna Stone

Cold or warm weather, I love my soup, stew and chili recipes! And I'm always busy creating new ones with the season’s best produce. For stews, I love going to the farmer’s market for fresh, local vegetables to combine in one healthy dish.

This White Chicken Stew is a favorite. It is hearty, yet healthy, and full of lean protein. The vegetables along with the beans and chicken create an amazing balance of taste and texture. The meal will leave you and the family feeling warm, happy and satisfied. It’s also easy to make extra servings for delicious (and easy) leftovers.

Get the recipe below. And if you're looking to jump-start your healthy eating, join me for a quick and simple 5-Day Detox!
