Taco Soup

Taco Soup
A dreamy, creamy addition to my soup collection for sure!
Who doesn't love tacos?  
Who doesn't love soup?


Ingredients:

1 lb grass fed beef
1 TB coconut oil
Taco Spice mix (pre bought -how dare you- or make your own)
4 cups Beef Broth
2 cans tomatoes (fire roasted or Rotel) or a jar of salsa
8 oz cream cheese
shredded monterey jack chesse
avocado
olives
lime juice
joseph's pitas
salt

Instructions:

Brown meat in coconut oil.  Add taco spice mix.  Add tomatoes in juices and broth.  Simmer.  Add cream cheese and break up and stir until melted.  Give a good couple squeezes of lime juice.  Divide into serving bowls and add toppings.  Serve with Lime & salt pita chips. 

Lime & salt Pita Chips

Cut up a Joseph's Pita into 2 circles, cutting along the edge with a pair of kitchen scissors.
Then cut each circle into triangles. I arrange my pita triangles on a cookie sheet with holes in it.  (It's made for thin crust pizzas.)  This allows heat to flow thru and makes for a nice crispy chip.
Spray your chips with a little coconut spray, drizzle some lime juice on them and shower with salt.
I have perfected my chip cooking time to 350 degrees for 6 minutes and 45 seconds.  Your time will vary.  Don't walk away from your oven---unless you like burnt chips!

*If you are in Crossover land, pregnant or nursing, brown rice in this would be a lovely addition!

Enjoy & Ole!

    Is this an "S" without the chips?

Snickers Smoothie

ONE WORD.... Snickers!  Yep!  Makes your mouth and mind BUZZZZZZZZ ! This recipe was graciously shared to me by a trim healthy mama.  I am always skeptical when something says 'healthy' and has a name brand tagged on it.  Like brownies made with cottage cheese.  Or how about 'Doritos' kale chips!  C+C Music Factory comes to mind with "Things that make you go hmmmmmm!"   BUT................. This really has a Snickers-ish flare to it.  And- I love it.   Go all out on your extract.  I have friends that get theirs at Walmart, but quality verses quantity wins me over.  You usually have to use more of the cheap stuff to get that punch of flavor.  My favorite is Bakto .  The other spotlight in this Snickers Shake is Glucomannan.  You can read its wonderful qualities  here. Snickers Smoothie Into your favorite blender add the following:  1 cup of Unsweetened Almond milk (or if you're in heavy weight loss mode, 1/2 cup of almond milk

My allergic reaction to jalapeños

****** If you are having an intense burning from cutting jalapeños and found this blog on the web, scroll to the bottom.  I have labeled what you need to do!!! It was Saturday afternoon. I had a wonderfully planned party at my house for 6pm. I diligently cleaned all day. I had let my house go, so a deep clean was in order. I was saving all my cooking for the last hour of the party so everything would be warm. It was 5pm and I was ready to cook. Being 6 months pregnant, the breaking back work of cleaning had almost done me in, but it was worth it. The house looked great. I planned to make a few dishes, but my star dish was 'Jalapeno Poppers'. I had them in restaurants in the past, but never made them. I got the recipe off a Facebook page. She hand typed it (no blog or star winning website) so it was simple instructions. I destemmed, cut them length wise and deseeded 15-20 jalapenos. Followed the rest of the instructions and into the oven they went. I de
