Made for PAC Spring, 2008. Very good white chili recipe. I increased the chicken broth and let it simmer a little longer. I did use the fresh cilantro but put in a little less than 1/4 cup. I then topped it with a 4-cheese Mexican blend and a little sour cream. The next time I make it I am going to increase the spices. Thanks for sharing, Michelle.
