    I have been on the Weight Watchers plan since this summer and have lost 20 pounds. I'd still like to lose a few more  to hit my goal weight. The new Weight Watchers Freestyle plan is making that easy. Over 200 foods are zero points, and many of those zero point foods can be combined to make some delicious recipes like this One Point Cheesecake. Today I am sharing a staple of the plan for me - 0 Point Chili in the Crock Pot. Made with 0 point ground chicken breast and 0 point beans, this recipe doesn't skimp on taste!

    This 0 point Chili in the Crock Pot will become your new Weight Watchers favorite. Filling and delicious and so easy to make.

    Why you'll love 0 point chili in the crock pot

    • Low in smart points and freestyle smartpoints
    • All the flavors of your favorite chili
    • Set it and forget it makes for easy mealtime

    Ingredients

    • 99% fat free ground chicken or ground turkey
    • Kidney beans 
    • diced tomatoes with green chilies 
    • diced tomatoes 
    • onion
    • chili powder
    • cumin
    • cayenne pepper
    • garlic powder
    • salt

    How to make 0 Point Chili in the Crock Pot

    I made this 0 point chili in the crock pot with 99% fat free ground chicken breast. Only 99% fat free chicken breast is 0 points so be sure that is kind you use if you want to keep this dish 0 points. You can also use 99% fat free ground turkey breast.

    Cook ground chicken in a skillet on the stove-top, breaking it apart to create crumbles.

    Toss all the ingredients and spices into the crock pot, give them a stir, and cook for 4 hours on high heat.

    0 point chili in the crock pot

    The best compliment I got on this 0 Point Chili in the Crock Pot was from my husband. The day he ate this for dinner, he had also had chili for lunch at a restaurant. He was a little bummed to have chili again for dinner, but changed his tune when he tasted it. He said this turkey chili was better than his higher fat and higher calorie restaurant chili. So there you go!

    You can serve this Weight Watchers Chili Recipe with some shredded cheddar and still keep it zero points. I found Kraft Cheese Fat Free Cheddar, which is 0 points for ¼ of a cup. I don't think you'd ever mistake the stuff for full fat cheese, but it is very tasty when mixed in with warm chili.

    I thought this 0 point chili in the crock pot tasted even better on the second day when reheated and served. No one will complain about leftovers when you are serving this!

    Frequently asked questions

    What kind of beans should I use in this ww zero point chili?

    I used kidney beans in this chili recipe, but you can substitute pinto beans if you have them instead.

    How do you store Weight Watchers chili?

    Before you store the chili you will want to make sure it has cooled. You can store the chili in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to three months.

    Can I used ground beef in this crockpot chili?

    You can, but it will change the point value. Low fat ground turkey or chicken is your best bet.

      Made this today. I’m a big fan of beef chili, but being on WW, I decided to give this a try. It is absolutely delicious!!! I’m so happy! This will be my lunch for this week. So easy to make. Thank you!

      Can I use lean ground turkey instead and it will be the same point value?

      Super easy and DELICIOUS! With the new WW plan, it is ONLY 1 point per serving.

      February 06, 2021 at 1:27 pm

      Hi again Traci, it looks like it is 2 points per cup for us greenies! The only ingredients with green points are the kidney beans and chicken.

    7. Jerri

      February 06, 2021 at 12:20 pm

      Hi Traci, The green plan is definitely different than all the others! I think I will try to calculate the number of points to make it.

      January 27, 2021 at 8:13 am

      I think this may be misleading, I'm sure it's not zero points on the green plan. Would you happen to know how many points this is on that particular plan? Thanks!

      Does anyone know how many points this would be on the pit purple WW plan? Thank you!!!

      I'm on blue and this chili recipe is zero points. I use 99% fat free ground turkey and the rest of the ingredients are zero points.

      Kind of unfair for you to not read that she said 1/4 of a cup of fat free cheese is 0 points. Pretty sure she isn't your weight watchers app, check that before asking points.

      Making this now.. should I add water?? There is barely any liquid in the crock pot??
