I've been a
little bit "over" blogging lately.
Well, not just
blogging, all social media to be exact.
See, I LOVE my
job, and that takes up a lot of my time.
I LOVE my little
family (Logan and Sundance),
and I love to spend any spare time with them.
I still LOVE
cooking/eating/food in general and I love sharing those recipes.
But blogging,
and all social media seems to take me away from those things lately.
SO I am in a bit
of a dilemma, maybe I will take a break from blogging soon,
maybe I will
shut down this blog all together, I haven't made a decision,
but that's where
my head is at as of late.
BUT I cooked a
recipe from my mom Heid-Dog this week AND a recipe from my mother in law Momma
B and they were both so delicious, so here they are for ya!
I have been hard
at work preparing for a pretty epic murder mystery party I am hosting for
Halloween this year and I will be cooking the soup below for the party.
I NEVER cook a
new recipe for guests so I had to do a run through this week
and it was so
delicious and just perfect for the fall season .
White Chicken Chili (but it's really more of a soup)
Ingredients:
1 box (32 oz.) chicken stock
3 (14.5 oz.) cans white beans (undrained)
5 cups of shredded, cooked chicken (rotisserie or boiled)
1 jar (16 oz.) salsa
1 block (8 oz.) pepper jack cheese grated
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
salt/pepper to taste
Directions:
Well this is an easy one, place all ingredients in a crock pot on high until cheese is well incorporated (can also do this on a stove-top). I cooked it for about 2 hours in the crockpot on high.
Serve with tortilla chips, avocado, cheese, and/or sour creme.
