Chicken Tortilla Soup 1

This is super easy (love those kind) and pretty healthy too! (love those kind too)
No real measurements, just make however much you need.
Quick and easy.(this is a version of what is served at El Toro)
This is only one of my awesome Chicken Tortilla Soup recipes, click HERE to check out the other.

Ingredients:
Onion, chopped
Jalapeno, chopped (add seeds if you want it really hot)
Garlic, minced
Chicken broth, (low sodium of course :) )
Tomatoes, diced - canned or fresh
Chicken, shredded (already cooked)
Chipotle Chile pepper -found in spices-
(or you could get real, fresh, chipotle peppers, you'd have to get them from a Mexican grocery store most likely.. they may have them in cans, but be careful cuz they can be really hot)


What to do:
In sauce pan, saute over low heat in a little bit of oil - onions, garlic, and jalapenos.
Add a lil CC Pepper, and keep stirring until onions and peppers are somewhat tender.
***Your HEAT will come mostly from the CC Pepper. So don't be skimpy on the jalapenos. :) They're delicious! So start small with the CC, and add more later if you'd like it a lil spicier. ***
Add tomatoes.
Add chicken broth.
Add chicken.
Turn up heat and cook til hot throughout, or starting to boil.

Serve it up! Add some tortilla strips/chips, avocados and limes for extra deliciousness.



**For an example on measurements... For two of us, I used about 1/2 an onion, 1/2 a pepper, 1-2 garlic cloves, 2 cans tomatoes, 2 cans Chicken broth, and about 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded. Amount of spice depends on how spicy you want it.... I just add til it tastes delicious. :)**

Back to the White Trash Roots

Lite Spam, Eggs, & fried Potatoes. Mix. Add salt and ketchup. Enjoy.

Chicken Enchiladas

Another super easy, super delicious recipe brought to my attention by Tessa. And since she won't post, I will. :)

Ingredients:
Chicken Breasts, shredded
Cheese, 8 oz bag
Small can of Chopped Green Chiles
Sour Cream
Tortillas (corn or flour)
Enchilada sauce

Amount of ingredients really depends on how much you plan to make. I had 2 LARGE chicken breasts and it made 8 enchiladas. (also depends on how full you stuff em)

Mix shredded chicken and green chiles. Add Sour Cream til you get a consistency like you would tuna for a sandwich. Add a lil cheese if you'd like. Put a lil enchilada sauce in bottom of pan (i also sprayed a lil cooking spray so they wouldn't stick), put a couple spoonfuls of mix in tortilla, and roll up, place in pan with fold down. Once all tortillas are in, cover with sauce and cheese. Bake @ 350 for 30 minutes. YUM!

Thanks Tessa! :)

Cream Puff Cake

Ingredients:
1 cup water
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1 cup flour
4 eggs

Filling:
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
2 1/2 cups 2% milk
3 pkgs (3.3 oz each) instant white chocolate or vanilla pudding mix
1 carton (8 oz) whip cream

In a large saucepan, bring water and butter to a boil. Add flour all at once and stir until a smooth ball forms. Continue beating until smooth and shiny.

Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Transfer to a greased 9x13 baking dish. Bake at 400 deg for 22-26 min or until puffed and golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For filling, in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, milk and pudding mixes until smooth. Spread over the crust; refrigerate for 20 minutes. Spread cool whip on top. Chill until serving.

I made both vanilla and white chocolate, and both are delicious! We also served it with strawberries. It would probably be good with any pudding. We were thinking chocolate or banana would be good too.
