Cooler weather is coming! Now we have been very fortunate in the weather we have had. Last week we had a cold weather meal even if our temps weren't as cold as what you see here.
Rick said he didn't think he had ever eaten white chili. Now most people make white chili with chicken instead of hamburger but pretty much keep the rest of the chili recipe the same. Not Gary - he went for White Chili.
I don't know if the above picture shows the goodness of this soup so here's a close up.
Gary cooked the chicken seasoned with seasoned salt, paprika and cumin. He roasted this in the oven and then it was cut up into small pieces. He then sauteed onions and garlic in butter, added green chilies and cooked for a few minutes. To this he added the cut up chicken, 2 cans of navy beans drained and rinsed, chicken stock, seasoned all this About 20 minutes before serving he mixed together some corn meal and milk and added to the chili for thickening. We all agreed this was probably better than regular chili.
Now what goes good with chili you ask? Well what else but cornbread.
Miss Annette made two kinds of corn bread for us. Regular and jalapeno. The best corn bread recipe you can have is two boxes of Jiffy Corn Bread Mix and 1 box of Jiffy White Cake MIx. Combine these together. To one of these she added some chopped jalapeno. Yummers!
Just add some chopped onions and some shredded cheese to top your chili with and you have a perfect colder weather meal. But wait! We need dessert.
Chris made some brownies. Just a simple brownie mix and he does a pretty good job with this.
So there you have it. The perfect cold weather meal for the cooler temperatures coming up. Maybe those girls of mine up in the cold rainy Northwest should make note of the recipe.
