This WHITE CHICKEN CHILI freezes well. I usually make a DOUBLE BATCH so I can have another meal frozen and ready to roll.
How to Thicken the White Chicken Chili
- Use the SAUTE BUTTON after it has finished cooking to reduce the liquid.
- After cooking, puree an additional cup of white beans and add it to the soup and let it heat up.
- Add more sour cream.
I hope you enjoy this as much as we do.

This is a simple, hearty soup my mother used to make. It’s not spicy, but naturally flavorful. This has a good meat and potato flavor that soothes the soul. I need to mention that it is so easy to make. Something you can whip up even if you don’t have a lot of time.
