Receta Simple and delicious Chicken tortilla soup
One of my happy accidents made a great meal tonight.
I wanted to make chicken tacos but didn't have the fresh produce I needed.
One of the great things about the shorter days of fall is that the early dusk keeps me from going out in the evening. That means I make due with what I have.
In any case, this is what we ended up with and it was delicious!
