Fervent Foodie

When the BF asked what I wanted for dinner, all I could think of was COMFORT FOOD!  He found this Taste of Home Recipe for Spicy White Chili, and whipped together a comforting dinner fit for a fancy restaurant:

See? FANCY PANTS!  😀

I didn’t lift a finger in the creation of this meal.  But I’m told it was very easy to put together 🙂 

Our chili was pretty similar to the Taste of Home recipe.  It started off with a large sauce pan and some sautéing:

• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Once the onions are soft and translucent, add:

• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chilies
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 32 ounces free-range chicken broth
• 4 cups cubed cooked chicken
• 1 diced jalapeno
• 3 cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained

Let simmer for 15 minutes, spoon into bowls and add:

• Cheddar Jack cheese & jalapeno peppers for garnish
• Some crusty buns fresh from the oven 😀 (we used the crusty dinner rolls from the freezer aisle)

This was DELICIOUS.  Luckily, I was able to finangle some for lunch tomorrow
