As Paula always says...make it your own. Too many beans? Cut some out! Try it again and make it just the way you love it.

i loved making it..it smelled so insanely good the entire time! but, when i went to eat it...it was too beany for me. i felt like allllll i was tasting were beans. i followed the recipe exactly. maybe because i live at high altitude it had something to do with it...i had to keep adding broth just to keep the beans moist and so the dish would get too hot. other than being beany and needing to add broth it was tastey! Did anyone else have these issues??

This was sooo good! I added one can of Rotel tomatoes with Habeneros! We love especially spicy food. It was too hot for the kids, but my husband and I loved it! This is the best white bean chili I have ever had!

This recipe is incredible! A friend of mine made it, and I had to wrestle the recipe out of him. Made it myself just the other night, still enjoying the leftovers. Plan on trying pork loin next time. Definitely plan on passing it on to my friends and family. Thank you so much!

We love to use 1 lb of ground turkey in place of the chicken sometimes.
