Last week, Magic 98, along with our whole Mid-West Family Broadcasting family had a chili cook-off. For me, the results were a huge improvement from last year when I came in 17th place (or something just as terrible). My “White Chicken Chili” won second place! I am so excited to share this recipe with you because it’s delicious, nutritious, and now… award-winning! (Can you tell I’m taking these bragging rights seriously?) For the cook-off, I tripled the recipe below.
