It has been so rainy and gloomy here that I thought it would be delicious to have chili one night for dinner. I had actually never made White Bean and Chicken Chili before but I have eaten dishes similar at social functions so I knew that it was something I wanted to try out for myself. And it happened to be an instant hit with my family! The secret to making this chili as delicious as it was is the S&W White Chili Beans (with onion, garlic, chili spices and mild jalapeno) and the S&W White Beans (in light seasoning) so make sure you purchase those varieties because the flavor combination was spot on! I am somewhat of a choosy cook, and I believe that no one does beans better than S&W. Just sayin’. Not only has S&W Beans had the highest standards in the industry for over 120 years but many of their bean varieties have 50% less sodium and are organic. Right now Now through 12/31/2017 S&W Beans is offering $1 off 2 cans of S&W Beans. Get (and print) your coupon from the S&W Beans website. My favorite thing about this recipe was how fast and easy it was to throw together! I literally put it together in under ten minutes, and it just cooked all day in my crock pot. You can even make this into a freezer meal. Simply add all the ingredients into a freezer Ziploc bag and let it thaw before pulling it out to put in your crock pot. I’m pretty positive this chili will be added into our dinner rotation this winter!White Bean and Chicken Chili
