Instructions
- Add the drained, rinsed white beans to a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the chicken broth and puree using an immersion or stick blender until all beans are broken down. Add all ingredients from the black beans through the cayenne. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 hour, stirring frequently.

Notes
For the slow cooker:
Cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4-5 hours.
For the Sriracha Lime Chips:
Cut white corn tortillas into strips or wedges. Heat vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet on medium, until hot. Add the chips, a few at a time, and cook until light brown. Remove to a paper towel lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle with Sriracha dry seasoning and lime zest. Repeat with remaining corn tortillas.
