Welcome to my world. Cooking has always been one of my passions and I thought it would be great fun to explore blogging about it. We love to cook and eat at home most nights. And we love to eat on the healthy side, not to say that we don't love our desserts, cuz we do...I am the first to admit I will eat a light dinner to indulge in dessert. That is my weak spot.

Chicken Tortilla Soup
2 or 3 boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into large bite size pieces
1/2 red onion, diced,
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
hefty sprinkle taco seasoning
sprinkle cumin
salt and pepper if needed (depends on your taco seasoning)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 small can diced green chiles
1 cup frozen corn
4 cups chicken stock
1/2 small can tomato paste
juice of 1/2 lime
Heat a soup pot on the stove and swirl with a little oil. Once hot, add the chicken, onion and green pepper, taco seasonings, cumin, and brown sugar. Cook until chicken is done, and veggies are tender.
Add in the canned veggies, corn, chicken stock, and tomato paste, and bring to a boil. Turn down and simmer until ready to eat. Does not need to simmer for too long at all since everything is already cooked!
Add a squeeze of lime juice at the end.
Garnish with tortilla chips, avocado, and hot sauces.
