- This is my favorite challenge of the 3 so far. When I start thinking about getting in all the main food groups, everything starts to fall into place nutritionally and calorically - my fiber goes up, satiety, and the quantity I eat overall decreases - and my wallet gets happier too. I made a white chicken chili this week and have had 5 servings throughout the week and have 4 servings left frozen, making each portion less than 4 bucks AND I doordashed the ingredients so it would be even less expensive normally. I LOVE chili season and white chicken chili is a great way to kick it off!
I don't use cream cheese in mine. Instead, I grill up a pound of chicken and shred it, then grill up an onion and garlic, and add in chicken stock, sour cream, 2 cans of great northern beans, 2 can black beans, 2 cans corn, and 2 cans green hatch chilis. Add less chilies for less kick. Then I add spices - paprika, cayenne, cumin, oregano, salt and lots of black pepper. Finish off either a small block of white cheddar.
This huge batch made 9 giant servings. As far as number of veggie servings per bowl of chili, I'd say it's between 2-3 in one meal!
The 3rd challenge is the Nutrition Challenge!
Here is the challenge if you choose to accept:
*Eat 5 servings a day from the fruit/vegetable group, 5 days this week.
It can be all vegetables or any combo of both. What is a serving? For the purpose of our challenge we will use the American Heart Association definition: Vegetables: 1 cup of raw leafy vegetables (about the size of a small fist), 1/2 cup of other vegetables or 1/2 cup of vegetable juice. Fruits: 1 medium fruit (the size of a baseball); 1/2 cup chopped, cooked or canned fruit; or 1/2 cup juice.
One suggestion, but not part of the challenge: Please post at least one picture of a healthy meal you eat this week. It provides great ideas for everyone in our game! And remember to make healthy food choices in other food groups but we are not measuring those for this challenge.
**At the end of the week I will ask you to comment under a post I will have pinned at the top of the game page. You will need to click on (comment) below that post and report in there. You will have until Saturday 10:00 PM Pacific Time to report in. I will then put all the players who completed this weeks challenge into our drawing for a $30 Amazon gift card or PayPal cash!
Going on a bike ride today to keep the fitness challenge going even though I completed it! We have trails near our house which really helps me reach my fitness goals in the summer. I love walking and biking. What do you all do to keep your fitness going through winter? I struggle once the cold hits.

I’ve been putting cinnamon in my water - leaving it overnight - and it dissolves - making for a tasty drink - since starting - I haven’t struggled with my water challenges.
