the soup/chili looks yummy, i do have a problem using canned anything….
so, are these navy beans? or the Italian white bean cannelini?
Amy Johnson —
Any white beans would be nice, but I would use cannelini or White Northern beans.
Amy@Frugale.org —Reply
We use a lot of Busc’s Beans, especially during the winter.

Oh, thank you!

Do you feel that the dried cilantro adds much flavor?
Amy Johnson —
I do, but I like cilantro. If you don’t care for cilantro you can delete it. You can substitute parsley for it as well.
Sadie —Reply
As an FYI, this is not vegetarian. Bush’s White Chili Beans contain chicken base. I’ve tried this recipe and it’s delicious, but it’s not vegetarian.
Piper Hepburn —
Chicken base is not listed in the ingredients. Is it part of the “natural flavor?”
Sandra Santilli —Reply
Does this chili freeze well?
Amy Johnson —
I have not frozen it before, but I think it should freeze well.

THIS RECIPE IS NOT VEGETARIAN!! The beans contain chicken base which I didn’t realize till I was recycling the cans. Wasted my time making this soup that I will not eat.
Amy Johnson —
Nowhere does is say that this recipe is vegetarian. I did say that it is meatless. To make it more clear, I added a note to the recipe stating that while this recipe is meatless, it is NOT vegetarian.
