Creamy White Chicken Chili

Creamy white chicken chili is a perfect cold weather meal. Make it for game day or any day to warm up from the inside out.

       An easy and delicious pot of creamy white chicken chili is the perfect way to warm up. It is flavorful and comforting all at once and quick to make too. It is requested often at Mimi's house and she's always happy to oblige.


      When the weather gets chilly, I love to warm up with a bowl of soup.  My husband however is soup adverse.

      I find he is much less likely to complain if the soup is hearty. Of course being crazy delicious doesn't hurt either.

       Luckily this fits the bill on both accounts. He may still take umbrage to the fact I called it chili though.

       To him chili is red. He also prefers it to be made with ground venison and an assortment of beans, not that he's opinionated or anything. 😉

        The good thing is you don't normally have to name dinner when you serve it, so he doesn't have a chance to question the semantics.

        Instead he ate a bowl and then another. He even commented on how good it was a few times along the way.

       I'm not surprised, as he likes it every time in spite of himself. He must forget between batches to protect himself from having to admit he likes either a soup or white chili!

       Whatever it takes to keep him happy! I've always loved it, so I'm happy to continue making it no matter what.

        I asked MiMi for the recipe after having it at her house a few times. My little sister loves it too.

       My brothers who have very similar soup for dinner and what makes chili beliefs as my husband also love it. They just can't help themselves.

        The fact that it is so simple to make only makes it that much better. But even if it were more complicated, I'd still have to make it. It's too good to stop!

        You can definitely enjoy it just as it is. You can also dress it up with your favorite toppings.

       We love it with a dollop of sour cream and some pickled jalapenos.  It's also great with shredded cheese, corn chips or cornbread.

      How do you feel about soup for dinner? And can chili be white?

     Either way, do yourself a favor and make a pot of this goodness. It'll help fill your tummy while you ponder these deep questions.
