My Favorite White Chili

Submitted by John W.

"Ground cloves, just the right amount of spice (sour cream as garnish to knock the spice down as needed) make this a unique chili recipe in my collection. Add garnishes as you like..."to taste". Posted this on 1/3/2016 and planning on making this later today. Haven't made it in a few years...but always love it and want to tweak it until I have it just right."
