make this today!

it has rained all weekend long.  i thank the Lord that it has rained all weekend long.  we need rain.  we need lots of rain and we are thankful for every drop.  i like rain.  i like to be indoors with the windows open so that i can hear the sweet sound of rain and smell the musty smell of the earth being drenched by rain.

i did lots of laundry this weekend and i made my NEW favorite chili.

a few weeks back i was at the grocery store, after work, and i was starving to death.  i bought enough food to feed two families for two weeks.  it took me forever to get out of there and when i realized i wasn't going to have much time to cook dinner (is it Dinner or Supper?)  i ran down the isle to grab some taco seasoning so that i could throw together some tacos.  as i grabbed for the seasoning i noticed a package i had never seen.  it was this package........

McCormick's White Chicken Chili Mix

it's my new favorite packaged dinner helper!  it's delcious!  i cant believe i waited so long to try this recipe!  it has a definite mexican flavor, so i went with the package suggestion and added cilantro and for white beans i used Garbonza beans.  i added one can of corn, fresh garlic, salt and pepper.   i garnished with avacado slices and grated cheedar cheese. 

next time i may throw in a can of blackbeans.

serve it with Jiffy cornbread.  try it today.  serve it at a party or take a big pot of this to work to get on the good side of your boss and those pesky co-wokers!!  shhhhh.......don't tell them you cheated..........just a little.
