Keto White Chicken Chili

 The most popular toppings for Chicken Chili is sour cream, white cheddar cheese, and avocado.  Lime and Bacon are some other sassy options for you!  If I’m serving this for friends, I like to set up an area on the top with all of the listed toppings so my guests can pick and cheese which to add to their keto chicken chili. My favorite combo is cheddar cheese and bacon!
