Fall is the perfect time for soups, broths, chili, and stews. Our Discover Blog is loaded with a wide variety of these seasonal favorites. This wonderful White Chicken Chili Recipe comes from Jessi Heggan of Jessi’s Kitchen.

“This Dairy-free White Bean Chicken Chili has been in the works for several months now. I have tested many different flavors and variations before finally landing on this recipe.

Recreating a classic, dairy filled recipe can be kind of hard sometimes and you really have to make sure that the flavors of the dish are really really good. Well I am here to tell you that the flavor of this soup is pretty freaking awesome. Not trying to brag or anything….” ~ Jessi Heggan, Jessi’s Kitchen
