Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup

Do you ever have one of those days that you just know you're not going to have much time to devote to dinner? But you still want to have a nice home-cooked meal?  I know I do.  The prep time on this soup is under 10 minutes.  Can't beat that!  It is great served with fresh lime juice, a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, etc.
 Use tortilla chips to scoop up the soup or crush them and sprinkle them on top and enjoy!
My favorite are the Hint of Lime tortilla chips, but you can use whatever floats your boat.  Or forget the chips and just use a spoon.  It would still be yummy!

Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup
modified from Jon and Jen Miller

1 frozen boneless skinless chicken breast
1 can Ro-Tel (I like the lime & cilantro, but the regular is fine)
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
1/2 TBSP garlic powder
1/2 TBSP chile powder
1/2 TBSP ground cumin


tortilla chips
sour cream
shredded cheese
guacamole ( my favorite recipe is found in THIS post)


Place frozen chicken breast in CrockPot then add all other ingredients.  Stir to mix.  Cook on high 5-6 hours or on low for 7-8 hours.  Before serving remove chicken from soup and shred.  Return chicken to CrockPot and stir to combine.  


Serve with tortilla chips, lime wedges, shredded cheese, guacamole, etc.  


Enjoy!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate.

Bread Twists

These are my new go-to bread sticks for two reasons - taste and time. They have a wonderful buttery/garlic flavor and the kosher salt adds a delightful savory crunch.  The other thing I love about these is how quickly they come together.  It only takes one hour from start to finish.  One hour!  That's almost unheard of for a yeast bread.  Try these out next time you want some bread with your dinner but are short on time.
