Southwest Corn Dip

My mom made this for the 4th of July celebration.

This recipe is from a friend of hers . . . .

who got it from a friend . . . .

and so the cycle goes!

After I tasted this corn dip, I hopped on the computer lickety-split fast and asked permission to post.

Thankfully, she said yes!

You are SO lucky!

We've probably all had the corn dip with the mayo and onion and fritos.

It's good.

But I'm thinking this one is better!

I like the black beans in this one.

Maybe that's the secret!

I'm not sure.

Maybe it's because I thought of another way to use this salad.

I'll show you that next!

I didn't make this recipe, but what I do know is that it makes a big bowl!

I think it would be easily halved. I would use the can of black beans and I would omit the jalapenos but use the entire 4 ounce can of green chilies.

You look at the recipe and see if you agree.

If not, just make it, share it, and enjoy it!

Southwest Corn Dip

4 cans Corn (15 Oz.), Drained

1 can Chopped Chilies (4 Oz), Drained

1 can Chopped Jalapenos (4 Oz), Drained

1 can Black Beans (15 Oz. Can), Drained And Rinsed

1 whole Red Bell Pepper, chopped

1 bunch Scallions, Chopped

1 cup Sour Cream

1 bag Finely Grated Mexican Cheese (8 Oz)

½ bunches Fresh Cilantro, Coarsely Chopped (or To Taste)

Drain corn, chilies and jalapenos.

Put in a large bowl with the beans and tilt the bowl on its side while you chop the other veggies. Add the rest of the veggies and drain – there will be liquid accumulated in the bowl. Stir in the sour cream and grated cheese.

Add the cilantro last.

Refrigerate before serving if you have time and the self-control to keep from eating it.

Serve with Fritos Scoops or Lime Tostitos. (We served it with chile fritos.)

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

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

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. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice!

Creamy Poblano Chicken Dinner

Picture used from "My Recipes.com" My picture didn't look nearly as appetizing! We've been eating this since the late 90's. Oh man! That sounds like we're really old! This is one of those fantastic Southern Living Recipes that looks really hard, sounds really gourmet-ish, and is so easy! Whenever the Mr. requests his birthday dinner, it's always this meal! He had his 43rd birthday yesterday! To go along with his new "older" age, we recently counted the number of doctors he has. Yes, doctors! Right now in life, it's not his social outlet to visit these physicians on a regular basis . . .but none-the-less, he has a well-rounded network of doctors that can take care of any need of his, ranging from his head to his toes. What a treat it is to get older. But with getting older comes this meal! Serve this with a green salad and dessert and you'll be the hit of the party! Creamy Poblano Chi
