My husband and I are big fans of chili. With beans for eating and without for topping hot dogs, burgers or fries. Our son snubs it every time. He doesn't like ground beef or tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enter White Chicken Chili. No tomatoes, no ground beef, and relatively mild taste. I even leave it a little soupy so he can think it is chicken and bean soup. I do what I need to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients for White Chicken Chili<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There really isn't much to say about the ingredients, they are all basic ingredients you probably already have on hand. But here are a few ideas for substitutes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

beans<\/strong> - any bean will do, but white beans (white, navy or Great Northern) are more traditional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

chicken<\/strong> - use thighs if your family prefers the taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mexican oregano<\/strong> - yes, they are different plants. Italian oregano is more minty and Mexican is more citrusy. But you can definitely use Italian if that's what you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mexican blend cheese <\/strong>- use cheddar or Monterey Jack or a combination of both as a substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

mild chilis<\/strong> - I keep it mild because my crew doesn't like overly spicy foods. If you do, swap out a chopped fresh jalapeno (or other pepper) in the chili itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
