Weekday Chef: WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Well Brucie? What are we gonna make for dinner tonight? I want something fast and I'm kinda tired because, well, school started and teachers are ALL tired out from standing and talking ALL DAY!

So let's make some easy white chicken chili!

Here's all my ingredients.....2 kinds of white beans....onion....and some squash from my garden (optional) I've GOT to start using up my garden veggies. It seems like I get a new Zucchini every day!

Chop up a cup of onion and a 1/2 cup of celery (and I added 1/2 cup yellow crookneck squash)
You could also use a 1/2 cup of frozen yellow or white corn just as easily...both optional.

A small can of chopped green chili peppers go GREAT in white chicken chili....

I used these spices....dash of lemon pepper, parsley, chili powder, onion salt, and Season Salt.... And I added 2 slices of lightly microwaved bacon....

Well, and of course the chicken broiled and then diced up....I added a few cups of milk and dumped the beans in after the veggies were tender....it's so easy...takes about 20 minutes to make. And it's great with hot bread sticks!
