white chicken chili

Lately, my go-to meal has been soup of all sorts. We love soup in our house and I love that it makes great leftovers for a few days after. Olivia could eat soup 7 days a week, just like her Mama.

So today I wanted to share my favorite soup that is incredibly easy and so full of flavor ... White Chicken Chili. We make ours in a large dutch oven on the stove, but it could also be made in a crock pot kept on low for a few hours. And of course, we top it with fritos because, well, fritos.
