Blue Ribbon Recipe by

I love savory soups, stews, and chili - especially when the weather turns cold. This is a savory chili packed with flavor and a little kick. This is the perfect comfort food and game day recipe. A one bowl dish that satisfies hungry football fans.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This creamy white chili is a delicious twist on a classic recipe. It's an easy meal that will warm you up in cooler months. Chicken and white beans add heartiness to the chili. Green chiles and onions add a nice flavor. There is a bit of a kick, so adjust (or omit) the red pepper flakes if you want this to be milder. With a lighter more soup-like consistency, this recipe is a nice alternative to heavier meat chilies. To save time, use a precooked chicken from the deli. We served this chicken chili with a hot piece of cornbread for a wonderful meal.
