white chili
i love chili, especially in the wintertime. to me, white chili is a great alternative to ordinary chili. it is a nice change from the traditional red sauce. this chili is lightened up with some ground turkey but has some added flare with a can of green chilies. this chili is delicious served with my cheddar scallion corn cakes. check them out too!
