This WW zero point chicken chili is about to go into your winter lunch rotation. If you’re not familiar with weight watchers, certain foods like lean meats and veggies are considered “zero points,” making this meal the best possible option. Even if you aren’t currently trying to lose weight, you’ll still love this soup. It’s just a hearty, satisfying soup to break up a chilly afternoon on the weekend or your workday. Plus, the chili is filling with all of the veggies, beans, and chicken. It is just as tasty as it is healthy.
This batch makes enough for two lunches plus another one for the freezer. The portions are really large – so you could probably stretch it to four lunches but since it’s zero points, why not have an extra large bowl!?

Ingredients
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, diced

- 3 chicken breasts
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 14.5 oz cans diced tomato
- 1 can corn

- 1. Spray with olive oil spray or drizzle olive oil in the pan. Sauté the onions and peppers. Set aside.

- Add the remainder of your chicken stock to the pot and the diced tomato, chopped chicken, kidney beans (or whatever beans you’d like!), garbanzo beans, corn, and chili seasoning. (note: if your chicken stock cooked way down when cooking the chicken, you may want to add more than 2 cups – it’s up to you on how thick you want the chili to be!)
