Kim's Chicken Tortilla Soup

I'd call this Six Can Soup, really.

Doesn't that sound more fun?

I think so!

My friend, Kim, is a great cook!

I always love to have dinner with her for two reasons.

She makes it look "souper" easy (a little funny since she gave me the soup recipe!)
It always tastes amazing.

Nothing, absolutely nothing, bothers her!

Well, I know that's not exactly true, because then she'd be a Saint.

She is a Saint, but not that kind of Saint!

But when things do bother her, she doesn't show it like I do!

She's raising three great boys and a husband

and they have a dog named Chief.

"Chief!" That tells you Chief isn't a tea cup poodle -- Chief is big enough to count as one of the boys.

But I didn't include him!

Why did I tell you all of this?

Because when Kim cooks, it has to please!

She gave me this recipe almost a year ago.

Or at least when the weather was cooler and we were freezing together at the baseball fields.

I couldn't forget it -- it was so easy!

Put these ingredients on your next grocery list and you'll be wishin' you knew Kim too!

Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup

1 family size can Chicken and Rice soup
1 can tomatoes with green chilies
1 can ranch style beans
1 can chicken broth
1 can cream of corn
1 can chicken*
see my note**

Place everything in a large sauce pan and heat thoroughly.

Serve with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheese, crushed tortilla chips, and a squeeze of lime, if you desire.

I served it with cornbread the first night and cheese quesadillas the second!

*I didn't buy canned chicken because I had cooked chicken breasts at home that I shredded and put in the soup.

**We like black beans a whole lot! So I added a drained can to the soup mix. It was great!

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!

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! Especial
