Easy Enchilada Soup

Image from Pillsbury

With cool weather one day . . .
and a warm day another

it's hard to plan for a soup day!

With this quick and easy recipe, most of the ingredients are probably already in your pantry. You can have soup whenever that Fall day decides to arrive!

The original recipe is from Pillsbuy -- the adaptions are mine.

Easy Enchilada Soup

2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 1/2 cans of milk
1 can enchilada sauce (I used mild)
2 chicken breasts, cooked and chopped
4 oz shredded cheddar cheese (I omitted)
Crushed tortilla chips (to garnish)

Dump soups and sauces and chicken in a pan and heat. Just before serving, stir in cheese, until melted. Top with crushed chips.

That's the basic recipe. But I changed it up a bit! I added:

1 can fire roasted tomatoes, drained
1 can green chilis, drained
1 can hominy (or corn), drained
1 can black beans, drained
3 chicken boullion cubes

Once the soups/sauces are heated, dump in the remaining ingredients and heat thoroughly. Serve with cornbread.

Now that I've made this -- here's what I would do different. I would use only one can of cream of chicken soup and add one can of chicken broth.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers; the best there are! I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy! They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup. I found it at www.tastebook.com I made some adjustments to the recipe. Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients. I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there.

Chicken and Artichoke Casserole

Picture from Cooking with Paula Deen ( . . .and aren't those cute dishes!) We first had this delicious casserole on Mother's Day while feasting at "Dining on Persimmon Hill," which is a restaurant at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, OK. Side note --- if you have the chance to visit the Museum, please take advantage of the opportunity. It is a wonderful experience! And don't forget to eat at the museum restaurant. It's delish! So back to the casserole. After eating it we knew we had to find out the recipe! The owner of the restaurant graciously shared her secret! It's a Paula Deen; which means it's full of fat AND yummy flavor! This casserole is a hit with my cherubs and the Mr. Also, whenever I make it for friends, they always want the recipe . . . maybe they're just being nice, I'm not sure! When you look at the recipe, you might think it's a pain, but really, it is so easy! ...
