BEST EVER WHITE CHILI
I have searched all over for a GREAT white chili recipe, I finally found one. This is SUPER easy and pretty quick. As with all chili, increase or decrease the spices to suit you. I add extra cumin and cilantro because I love them both so much.

WHITE CHILI I
Serve with corn bread and salad. If you cube the chicken ahead of time, make corn bread muffins while preparing the chili, and use a bagged salad mix from the produce department, this is a very fast meal to put together.

WHITE CHILI
This has ground turkey, salsa, corn, great Northern beans and jalapeno pepper-jack cheese. I requested this recipe from my co-worker after she brought it into one of our many potlucks. It is very tasty and a little spicy; if you don't like it spicy, cut the amount of cheese in half--it will still have a little kick! This recipe is really easy, and even the pickiest eaters will love it.

QUICK AND EASY WHITE CHILI
This recipe has been used by me for several years, but keeps getting changed just a bit every time depending on what is in the pantry and freezer. If you prefer poultry instead of pork, substitute 1 pound ground chicken or turkey for the ground pork.

WHITE CHICKEN CHILI
Whether you call this dish a chili or hearty chicken and bean stew, it's definitely a winner. The first time I made it for my kids, they asked me so many times what it was called, but by the end of the meal they cared much more about getting second helpings than remembering the name! If you have time be sure to double the recipe and store in the fridge or freezer, because, like most soups and stews, the leftovers are amazing.

Steps:
- Place beans in a large heavy pot. Add cold water to cover beans by at least 3 inches. Bring beans and water to a rapid boil; boil for 2 minutes. Turn off heat and allow to sit, covered, for 1 hour. Or soak beans overnight in water to cover.
- Drain beans. Place 5 cups chicken stock in same pot. Add garlic, onions, cilantro, parsley, bay leaf, oregano, thyme, cumin, mint, jalapeno and beans. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until beans are very tender, stirring occasionally, about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, remove all visible fat from chicken. In a large skillet, poach chicken breasts in remaining 2 cups chicken stock until just tender, about 15 minutes. Cool and cut chicken into cubes. Reserve stock and chicken.
- When beans are tender, add chicken and one cup reserved stock. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until chicken is heated through, thinning chili with remaining reserved stock as needed (chili should be thick). Ladle chili into bowls. Serve with chopped red onion, picked okra or green chilies and nonfat yogurt.

- Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and cilantro are all great toppings for white chili.
