A friend was telling me of this wonderful chili she had in a small out of the way cafe some years ago and asked me if I had heard of it or had a recipe, it's for white chili where all the ingredients are white, beans, meat, etc. I've never heard of it before but it sure does sound good and she said it was healthier than the normal beef chili. Has anyone heard of it or better yet have a tested recipe? I'm sure it has to be a farm girl invention, since were so thirfty and all. Thanks!!

I'm not 40 something, I'm 39.95 plus shipping and handling!

I love white chili - I have a recipe that calls for all canned goods, but it is quite tasty.

1 can cream of chicken soup
1 large can chicken broth
2 cans Texas style beans
1 large can chicken - white meat
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes and chiles

Add all together and heat. Serve with shredded sharp cheddar cheese and tortilla chips to crunh into the soup. Serves 6 bowls.

Here's one from www.epicurious.com -- I love that site because other home cooks write reviews and make suggestions -- and I can adapt the recipe to what we have on hand and to our taste preferences. The barley makes this a toothsome dish!

WHITE TURKEY CHILI

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup minced onion
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 pound uncooked turkey breast slices, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 pound ground turkey
3 cups (or more) chicken stock or canned low-salt broth
1/4 cup pearl barley
2 tablespoons chopped seeded jalapeño chilies
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon dried summer savory

1 15- to 16-ounce can cannellini (white kidney beans) or Great Northern beans, rinsed, drained
1 15- to 16-can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), rinsed, drained
Several dashes of hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)

Chopped green onions
Grated cheddar cheese
Sour cream





Heat vegetable oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add cumin and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cubed turkey breast and ground turkey. Sauté until no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
Add 3 cups stock, barley, jalapeños, marjoram and summer savory to turkey mixture. Cover and simmer until barley is almost tender, stirring occasionally, about 40 minutes.

Add cannellini and garbanzo beans to chili. Simmer uncovered until barley is tender and chili is thick, about 15 minutes. Season with hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.Bring to simmer before serving.)

Serve chili, passing green onions, cheese and sour cream separately.

Serves 4.

Here is a Schilling recipe for Southwest White Chili that I have made before - it's good - and no tomatoes:

1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into small cubes
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 cup chicken broth
1 can (4 oz.) chopped green chilies
1 can (19 oz.) white kidney beans (cannelloni), undrained
Southwest Spice Blend (as follows)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp oregano leaves
1/2 tsp cilantro leaves
1/8 tsp ground red pepper

1. Heat oil in large saucepan over med-high heat. Add chicken and onion; cook 4-5 min.
2. Stir in broth, green chilies and spice blend; simmer 15 min.
3. Stir in beans. Simmer 5 min. Top with onions. Garnish with Monterey Jack cheese, if desired. Makes 4 cups.



Enjoy the good things in life - especially when there is time for tea!
