Simple Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe

 My husband found this recipe a couple months ago and made it on a gloomy Saturday. It's been in my head to make it again with leftover chicken and this week I decided to do just that! I try and stretch a whole chicken to 3 meals since we can get one chicken from Walmart for under $6. It makes for a very budget friendly week of groceries when we do this. The last time we had a whole chicken my husband also saved the broth and that's the broth I used to make this soup. It was SO flavorful! The original recipe comes from All Recipes and I will link it HERE, but I did switch it up and exclude a few things. 

Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 onion, chopped.

3 cloves garlic, minced.

1 TBSP olive oil.

2 tsp chili powder.

1 (28 oz) can crushed tomato.

1 (10.5 oz) can chicken broth (or homemade).

1 1/4 cups water.

2 cans whole kernel corn, drained.

2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed.

1/4 cup cilantro, plus extra for garnish.

2 cups shredded chicken, cooked. 

Corn muffins or tortilla chips for the side.

Sour cream, Monterey Jack or Mexican shredded cheese, avocado to top soup.


Recipe:

Cook onion and garlic in olive oil til translucent in large pot.

Add crushed tomatoes, chili powder, water and chicken broth to pot and bring to boil. Turn down heat and let simmer for 5-10 min.

Add corn, black beans, cilantro and chicken to pot and continue to simmer for 5-10 minutes so flavors can come together.

Make corn muffins for the side or pair with tortilla chips. 

Add toppings and serve!

That's it. So good and very hearty! Definitely comes out more of a chowder consistency but we love it that way

I hope you enjoy!

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Meatloaf Muffins Recipe

This recipe is served well because of the smaller portions and ease of transfer. No cutting into a big loaf and hoping it cooked all the way through!  This is a very basic meatloaf recipe and I found the original on Every Day Mom's Meals , though I've changed it up quite a bit to fit our family.  See recipe below! Ingredients: 2 lbs ground beef 2 eggs, beaten 1 green bell pepper, diced 1 cup plain bread crumbs salt and pepper to taste 1/4 cup ketchup + extra to top muffins 2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce Recipe: Preheat oven to 350. Spray muffin tin with non stick spray and set aside. In large bowl mix all ingredients well (I use my hands to make sure it's thorough) Fill each muffin tin with some meat mixture, leaving about a half inch from top empty so it doesn't overflow while cooking.  Take your ketchup and squirt a bit on top of each muffin. Bake for 25 minutes at 350. After time is up, heat oven to 400 and continue baking for 10-15 more minutes. This makes the top and ...
