Sunday Dinner

Every Sunday we have dinner at our house. It is a family affair where the door is open and everyone is welcome. I thought I might share some of the recipes that make up family dinner. Seems we have come up with a few go to standards. Things we can make in bulk and simmer all day in the crockpot.

Chicken Tortilla Soup     

• 3lbs Cooked Chicken, shredded or cubed – or half it and toss in a can or two of beans   
• 2 cans Tomatoes
• 1 large can Enchilada Sauce
• 1 Onion chopped
• 2 cans of chopped Green Chilies – or replace one with a small can of diced Jalapenos
• 2 cloves of Garlic
• 4 cups Water
• 29 oz Chicken Broth
• 2 tsp Cumin
• 2 tsp Chili Powder
• 2 tsp Salt
• ½ tsp Pepper
• 2 Bay Leaves
• 20 oz frozen corn

Toss it all in the Crockpot. Turn on low for 6 – 8 hours or high for 3 – 4 hours. I will often toss in extra veggies, peppers add a great pop of color.
