This year, we have had more days where the temperature was below zero than I remember in a long time. I hate being cold all the time and tomorrow, the high is only going to be 3. No, that’s not a typo. On days that are that cold, I really want to make a hot lunch for everyone to have. Sandwiches or salads just don’t work when it’s that cold. This White Chicken Chili Recipe with Sour Cream is a family favorite. I am being compensated by Cans Get You Cooking for my participation in this campaign as part of the Mom It Forward Blogger Network.

White Chicken Chili Recipe with Sour Cream
By Thursday, most of the fresh fruits and vegetables I’ve purchased are either gone or past the point where they’re usable. I hate food waste but it’s next to impossible to keep a vegetable you buy on Sunday fresh until the following Saturday. I’m generally stressed out from a busy week and want a quick, healthy meal. The solution is not takeout … it’s your Cantry. You can make nutritious, fresh and flavorful meals quickly and easily thanks to the canned foods in your pantry. February is National Canned Food Month so now is the perfect time to share this recipe with you.
I often make traditional chili with canned tomatoes but this is perfect for those days that I want something different. This White Chicken Chili Recipe with Sour Cream uses Goya Cannellini Beans which you may also know as Alubias. This is a very easy recipe that is ready in just 30 minutes. Canned foods make homemade easy. Looking for a traditional chili recipe? Try my Weight Watchers Chicken Chili recipe.
