Just when you thought winter was over.... good 'ole Kansas socks it to you.  We have run the spectrum on weather in the past week.  70 degrees and sunny, pouring down rain, hail and yesterday morning I woke up to it... snowing.  Ugh!  Come on Kansas, get it together.  Tomorrow is April 1st.  Let's bring on spring. 

Regardless, in the spirt of the chilly weather outside, I present to you, a lovely pressure cooker white chicken chili sure to warm your belly.  Even in the spring time.

Enjoy!
