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.
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. You'll also love our Tailgating Recipe -Healthier Chili.. 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
I used kidney beans in this chili recipe, but you can substitute pinto beans if you have them instead.
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.
You can, but it will change the point value. Low fat ground turkey or chicken is your best bet.

Does anyone know how many points this would be on the pit purple WW plan? Thank you!!!
Laci
Making this now.. should I add water?? There is barely any liquid in the crock pot??
Bonnie Morrison
I give this recipe 5 stars as it was that good. It's hard to believe that there is ground chicken in it! Very good and will be in my recipe rotation going into the colder months.
Kelly Gibson
If I doubled this should I cook it for the same amount of time?
Gina S
I want to make this in the Instant Pot. How do I convert the time?
Katie
I loved this chili! I know it’s August and 108 degrees outside, but this tasted so yummy, it was creamy and chunky and tasty. I added more green chili’s and used white northern beans, so even if it added a few more points to it, it was well worth it!
Kalia
I followed the recipe which was great but my instant pot kept displaying the word “burn” and the timer was going down. I think I cooked it for 4 hours but it was very dry.
Gina S
Because this is slow cooker times not "instant pot".
Viktoria Sacker
I should add that I used no salt added diced tomatoes and 99% fat free turkey. I also used a small can of green chilies since the tomatoes I had didn’t have green chilies in them. My husband said it was the best chili he has ever eaten!
Viktoria Sacker
My husband and I just had this for lunch...best chili EVER! And, yes...zero points, even with the fat free cheese! Last night, I made the pizza recipe...pretty good...we added some cut up chicken fajita meat and mushrooms. And, I made the cheesecake last night and it is AWESOME! Thanks for your fabulous recipes!
Laura
Made this chili with fat free ground turkey and I added a can of no salt added black beans. I entered the listed nutrition facts into the Weight Watchers app so that I could track it and it comes out to 3 points? Either way, it’s still low in points and super yummy! Thanks!
Christy
I’m making this right now and I’m not sure about the canned tomatoes. The ingredient list says one can, but the direcions say two cans. I put in one can and a little water. Hoping for the best!
Debbie Weprin
OMG - this is the best chili ever! Can't believe it's zero points. I used 99% ground turkey breast and seasoned black beans.

I put in some water...... I think it was left out.
Catherine
I made this recipe tonight and it was soooo delicious! It was packed with lots of flavor! I used ground turkey breast, skinless of course, and I also added a can of black beans and some frozen corn. All zero points! It was a hit in my house!
Vicky
Glad it turned out well Catherine. Thanks for dropping by!
Libbi Moore
I have made most of these! Excellent is all I can say. So easy too😀😀

Thank you Libbi.

Kind of unfair to add cheese in the photo and still advertise it as 0 Point. Also, I see that the chicken is 99% fat free, but it and the canned kidney beans surely have a few points, don't they? My points calculator gave the ground chicken 16 pts and it doesn't mention canned kidney beans, but cooked kidney beans is 2 pts, and since canned beans have a lot of salt I gave them 2 pts as well. So if you divide that by 6 servings, that's 3 points, which is still excellent for a good bowl of chili.
Vicky
Hi Jaylin, good questions. I mentioned in the post "You can serve this with some shredded cheddar and still keep it zero points. I found Kraft Cheese Fat Free Cheddar, which is 0 points for 1/4 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." Canned Kidney beans are 0 points according to my Weight Watchers tracker and their website. The ground chicken I used was 99% fat free which my tracker and their website also brings up as zero points.
Teri
Hi Vicky,
I can't wait to make this. Do you know what using ground turkey; 93/7% would do to the points or how I could find out?
Thank you!
Teri
Kelly Gibson
I’m WW Freestyle, all beans and chicken breast meat are 0 points.
Sam Smith
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.
Sue
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.
