It’s that time of year here in Kansas. Changing from needing a tank top to long johns almost overnight. This chilly weather calls for chili soup. Ever since I was a kid, white chicken chili was a favorite. Maybe it was because my mom spoiled us rotten by adding teeny-tiny star pasta pieces to the chili but who knows! Years later, I still have a soft spot for white chicken chili, especially this time of year.
