Lent is a good time to get back in the habit of getting the little guys back in a routine. So I re-post this every once in awhile to remind myself! I just stuck this on the walls of my four youngest children. (11, 9, 7, and 5) This way we all remember the importance of routine.

White Chicken Chili








White chicken chili
(thanks Cheryl and Kathy)
Simmer the following in a big pot: 
1medium onion
1medium chopped green pepper
1tablespoon margarine

Once they have softened add 1-2 cups chopped precooked chicken to the onions/pepper

When these items are good and hot,
ADD 3 cans cannellini beans (white beans, can be hard to find at some stores), add the juice from the beans too!
Add 1-2 packages of chili seasoning mix…depending on how flavorful you like your chili

Mix these with the beans, chicken, veggies.
Now Add 
1 Large can or crushed tomatoes (28oz can)
2 15oz cans of whole or (petite diced tomatoes)
1 can of corn (drain water before adding to mix)

Stir all these ingredients together and let it get hot.  

Taste the chili to see if you think needs more flavor.  Then add the last ingredient
1/3 cup of sugar (really helps to bring out the flavor of the tomatoes)
