Eat at home 2!

[LilyWDW]

No idea for tonight. I had not planned to be home, but we are under a severe weather warning for today and tonight (East Tennessee). Some will depend on when the storms are coming through and if we have power. Sorry, I do NOT do bad weather well and am really scared and anxious about it. Hopefully the mountains break the storms up enough to keep us from getting the really bad stuff.

Yep. middle Tennessee is under severe storm warnings too. I am leaving work and picking my kids up from school at noon to head home where it's safer.

Dinner tonight:
Hot Dog Wraps
Fries
Diced Cantaloupe

I made a Chicken Tortilla Soup yesterday, it was soooo good, I wanted to share the recipe with you guys.

Chicken Tortilla Soup
2 can chicken broth
2-3 whole chicken breasts (boneless)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder
salt & pepper to taste
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilis (I used Rotel)
1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed & drained
1 small bag frozen corn kernals
1 (6 oz) tomato paste
shredded cheese
tortilla chips (crunched up)
sour cream (optional)
cilantro (optional)

In a slow cooker, combine everything except the cheese, sour cream & tortilla chips and cilantro. Cover & cook on low for about 4 hours. Remove chicken and shred with a fork. Put chicken back in slow cooker, mix it all up, and cook for an additional 1-2 hours on low.

Dish up the soup, top with shredded cheese & tortilla chips. Additional toppings of sour cream & cilantro if you like.
I had mine with just shredded cheese and about 4 tortilla chips crumbled up. DH added sour cream on top of his.

We had enough for leftovers today. I just heated some up for lunch and it was just as good as last night.

I have a vegetarian mexican soup in the crock pot for tonight. Super easy, and it's a family favorite!

16 ounces crushed tomatoes
can of mild rotel
can of black beans
can of garbonzo beans
2 cans of Progresso Minestrone

Then I just add whatever veggies we have leftover from the week. I also throw in a handful of pasta of some sort. We eat it with tortilla chips.

Vegasnative - About the Tortilla soup, do you put "uncooked" chicken in the crockpot or do you use cooked chicken. This recipe sounds great and a change from regular ole chicken soup.
