White Bean Salsa Verde Chili

White Bean Salsa Verde Chili with Lentils & Quinoa

This White Bean Salsa Verde Chili is full of so many flavors. I have been looking for a non-tomato based vegetarian chili, and this one is a winner! The spice level can be controlled depending on your choice of salsa verde. This chili is thick, amazingly flavorful and just the right spice!

I owe Ashley at Cookie Monster Cooking for creating this amazing vegetarian chili. I always loved white chili, but most of the recipes include chicken as the main protein source. This chili gives so many protein options in one bowl along with delicious and filling grains and veggies!

This White Bean Salsa Verde Chili dish was excellent for dinner. It was even better the next day! Topped with creamy sliced avocados, grated monterey jack cheese and whole grain tortilla chips, this chili has become part of our dinner rotation for now on.
