Spicy White Chili

With cooler weather coming our way, Chili and different types of soups are always yummy. I made this recipe tonight that I found in a Better Homes and Gardens article with different types of chilis. 
I think it would be a great recipe to make after the holidays also to use up leftover turkey since you can use chicken or turkey in it. I used shredded rotisserie chicken meat tonight and it worked fine.
