Chili is one of those one-pot meals that's easy to make and always a crowd pleaser!Though you can make chili in all kinds of ways, when you start adding a lot of extra ingredients, you start adding calories. This recipe not only offers a different spin on flavor, but has a low calorie-count, too: it uses chicken instead of beef, and white beans instead of red beans.
