Tomatillo Chili


Hello again!

We had a chili cook-off with our parenting group recently.  No, we did not feed the 13 month olds chili, but it did remind me of the scene in Mr. Mom.

One friend made this chili.  I really enjoyed the flavors, and have been looking for a good white bean chili.  While the recipe doesnt call for white beans, my friend successfully added them in.  I did not use any chicken, except for the broth (note, when my friend made it, she used a rotisserie chicken from the store).  To the flavor paste, I added one can of white beans so they were pureed to add thickness.  I also added one additional can of white beans, whole.  It ended up being pretty thick, so perhaps I would add more broth next time, or not puree as many beans.   I used canned tomatillos but think it would be better with fresh and will try that next time.

  1. I made this vegetarian as well, but didn't blend any beans in the beginning. I did on round two and it made a huge difference, good stuff!
