Tortilla Soup

Once or so a month I work as a tester for new products that are going to be coming out in the future. This morning I had an appointment to test the fragrances of some new body washes. It only takes about 15 minutes and you walk out with $10.00 cash . . . nice extra spending money :-)

I then head to the church to meet Lisa so we could clean our two buildings. She ended up getting a head start while I was at my appointment so I finished up so she could leave to pickup Kaitlyn and preschool.

Afterwards, I headed to the grocery that was near the church to pickup a rotisserie chicken. I was bummed when they were sold out so I headed home. Once I got home Lisa called and said she was running to Super Wal-mart . . I ended up hitching a ride with her. Thankfully, Super Wal-mart had chicken fresh out of the oven. We then headed home and I got busy making Tortilla Soup. Here is the recipe:

Tortilla Soup

14 - 16 ounces of chicken broth

1 can of refried beans

1 can of black beans rinsed and drained

1 cup of cooked cubed chicken
1 cup of corn

1 cup of salsa

1/2 cup water

Put in a pot and simmer for 10 minutes. Removed from heat and then add 1 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted.

In a soup bowl place some crumbled tortilla chips.

Then pour the soup into the bowl over the chips. Also, I love Tostitos Natural Organic Corn Chips. They are yummy!

Then put some more shredded cheddar cheese into the bowl and serve!

We had fresh fruit too . . .strawberries, banana's and apples and O'Henry Bars for dessert!
