This Chicken Enchilada Soup recipe is made in a slow cooker with cans and spices that you have on hand.  Just add frozen chicken breasts.

Who doesn’t love their slow cooker?  Just put in all of the ingredients in the morning and let it cook all day.  And it makes the house smell good!  I wanted to eat this soup for lunch – but knew it wasn’t ready til dinner.

We’ve always got a lot of use from our slow cooker.  But usually by April we’ve traded it out for the grill.
…..BUT it was 35 this morning when we woke up!  So, soup was back on the menu. Chicken Enchilada Soup.  Continue reading “Chicken Enchilada Soup”

This recipe for broccoli, cheese and rice soup is so good.  It’s a comfort food for these cool Spring days we are having right now.

We’ve recently been doing Meatless Monday.

Most of the inspiration to do so came from my daughter-in-law.  She recommended that we watch a documentary on Netflix about plant-based diets and the benefits. ‘Game Changers‘ is about eating only a plant-based diet and the effects it has on your lifestyle.  It is interesting but upon further search (Google) I read where it is a biased documentary with misleading information.  Personally, this doesn’t affect our household of two – we like our meat and have no intention of turning into vegetarians or vegans!

We change our chili recipe up around our house quite a bit.

Most of the time there is not a recipe, we just add what sounds good and use ingredients we have on hand.

Paul was always the chili cook until more recently.  I wasn’t working and he was working full time and it just made sense for me to do the cooking.

Recently, since he retired he made ‘his’ chili.  It was good as always but he kept asking me what ingredients he had used years ago.  There again, no recipe. Continue reading “Turkey Chili”
