THE BEST WHITE CHICKEN CHILI
This is the first recipe I ever tried for white chili, and it is the best one I have ever found. I found it in a cookbook called So Fat, Low Fat, No Fat, but don't let that fool you. The chili may be low on fat but it has a fantastic flavor and always gets raves every time I make it. This is not the exact recipe in the book, as I have made a few minor adjustments to make it a little easier.

Steps:
- In a 5-qt stockpot, combine water with the lemon pepper, 1 tsp ground cumin, and olive oil.

Tips:

- Use a flavorful broth: Instead of using water, use a flavorful broth, such as chicken broth or vegetable broth, to add more depth to the chili.
- Add some spice: If you like your chili with a bit of a kick, add some chopped jalapeños or a teaspoon of chili powder.
