Back to Bloggin'
Hi ladies! Well, summer pushed me into Blogger hibernation. I really didn't have too many recipes to write about anyway, because I do not cook much in the summer! Too hot! But I got back into the Fall Spirit and made a pot of soup the other day that I became fond of last year. My friend Shannon devoured it...and I consider her the picky connoisseur of tortilla soups and such. You know the kind...has to have a little slice of lime in her Sol beer. Requests "Top Shelf" Tequila in her margs, and practically gives the waiter her own recipe of how she wants it prepared. But what I love most is that she has all of these little dishes she likes to use for toppings and garnish on her meals! This is new to me! I am from a practical family in Kansas. Garnish for your dinner was a fork or spoon! Ya want another garnish, kid? Okay, here is napkin...now go eat and stop askin' for fancy things like "garnache!" But I have come to embrace her ways. Sour cream, black olives, cilantro, a little shredded cheddar cheese and some crushed tortilla chips go nice with this soup! Strangely enough it has absolutely no tomatoes in it! But it is yummolicious! I made it this day and just left it in the crockpot all day. :) I substituted a pablano pepper for the green bell pepper because in my past experience, all green bell peppers are good for are making your burp occasionally after dinner. EWWW. Who wants that! Pablanos are much better! So enjoy this soup, everyone! I have to go prepare my "garnache!" :) Oh, p.s. When you go to this soup link, and print the recipe, I omit the cornstarch addition. I don't like my soups to look like Jello, so I left that out! Look below for link and recipe! :)
