I love making soup! It is so comforting and makes the perfect light dinner. I usually make a double or triple batch and freeze some of it for easy meals down the road. Recently I tried this recipe for white chicken chili using rotisserie chicken, one of my favorite ingredients. I like to pick them up at the cafe inside Calafia in Palo Alto but you can find them almost anywhere.
The recipe is based on this recipe from Southern Living, I made a few changes because I had trouble finding a white chili seasoning packet. Enjoy!
