Slow Cooker Chicken Chili with Greens and Beans

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chili Recipes. (Slow Cooker Chicken Chili with Greens and Beans). Beans, greens and chicken come together with tomatoes in a thick and creamy broth. This recipe, as with most chili recipes, doesn't need to be exact and can be altered to fit your taste or what you have on hand. The choice of greens is up to you - my first choice is kale, but you can use spinach, turnip greens, collards or a combination (my favorite)! If you use fresh greens, wash and chop them very fine before adding them to the slow cooker.
