tortilla soup

2 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes (I usually blend mine up in the blender so there are no offensive tomato chunks)
2 cans water (fill up tomato cans with water)
1 (4 oz) can green chilies
2 cups frozen corn
1/4 tsp chili powder
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp cumin
6 chicken bullion cubes
4 beef bullion cubes

corn tortillas for tortilla strips

Saute chicken, onion and garlic until onion is translucent. Add everything else to the pot and simmer as long as you want (at least an hour). This also works great in a crockpot.

To make tortilla strips, cut the tortillas in 1/4 in strips, lay on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Serve the soup over the strips with cheese, sour cream, avocados etc.

This is a really yummy, thick soup with a lot of fun flavors.

I tried this today since it was so cold and wet outside. It was SO yummy! I actually prepped it and had the sitter make it while I taught lessons. So easy!

Dilly Beans

This is my mom's famous recipe for canned "dilly beans". She uses fresh dill grown in her backyard. You'll like them if you like pickles. There is never a Dunaway function without them. Wash fresh green beans and snip off the ends.  Put 1 clove garlic and  1 head dill (when it reaches the seed stage) in a pint-sized jar, then pack the jar tight with as many beans that will fit. Brine: 2 c. vinegar 2 c. water 1/4 c. salt - no iodine! 1/4 t. cayenne pepper Heat brine & warm lids. Cold pack in water bath & boil for 10 minutes. If you're like me and have never canned before, that may have sounded like Chinese, but I'm posting it for my canning guru friend. I think someday I'll get there. I would guess there would be a time to wait to make sure the pickling process was complete, but I don't know how long that would be.

Sprinkles' Lemon Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter, softened 3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar juice and zest of one lemon 1 tsp. vanilla 1/8 tsp. salt Combine butter, sugar, and salt and beat till well combined. Add lemon juice, zest, and vanilla and continue to beat for another 3 to 5 minutes or until creamy. I made this for lemon cupcakes for a baby shower and it was so good! I did add a little more sugar so it was a little stiffer and easier to pipe with a decorating tip.

Ghoulosh

I know, I'm breaking my own rule about no cream soups, but it doesn't seem so bad next to the high fructose corn syrup feast that happens right after. I love this meal because it is yummy, hearty and one dish. I served it with some fresh bread. Yum! 1 1/2 pounds ground beef 1 pound ground pork sausage salt and pepper to taste 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice (I didn't use this in mine because I didn't have any, and I was afraid it might be too weird for my kids. Maybe next year?) 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken stock 1 1/2 cups long grain and wild rice mix 1 sugar pumpkin 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup 2 (4 ounce) cans mushroom stems and pieces, drained 2 (14.5 ounce) cans French cut green beans In a large skillet over medium heat, mix ground beef and sausage.
