This is an unremarkable chili. I didn't like how some of the beans were super soft and others were still hard. The flavors were underwhelming. Won't make again.

We added the cheese and some crumbled corn bread. It was outstanding. The leftovers tasted even better the next night. It is great winter comfort food and we will make this often!

I love this recipe! I usually also add chicken to it. The beans can be easily substituted for whatever you have in your pantry.

I made this last Friday,, but couldn't find butter beans, pinto beans, or navy beans, so instead used , 1 can of white kidney beans, and two cans of mixed beans (which included red kidney beans,so it wasn't exactly "White Bean Chili"), along with the garbonzo beans, but it sure was delicious. It was so good that I didn't even think of garnishing it with anything. Next time I will try to remember to use some garnishes just to see how that tastes. I will definately make this chili again. My brother also loved it. He even liked it cold.
