recipe: football soup.

a few weeks ago, i decided to tackle one of the zillion recipes i'd added to my food board on pinterest.

it was one of those saturdays: i woke up, went for a run, showered, & was ready to relax in front of the many football games going on that afternoon. i also wanted to eat something yummy. and that, ladies & gentlemen, is how the name 'football soup' was born. yes, it's true: this no-named soup recipe from pinterest now has a proper title.

you're welcome, food world.

the best way to descripe this extremely easy-to-make crock pot soup is creamy, dreamy, delicious, & addictive.

that's really the best i can do. you're just going to have to try it out yourself.

since this soup's trial run, i have made it an additional time or two, & last night saw another repeat. with this dish's growing popularity (and by that i mean popular with myself), i decided it was time for its blog debut.

football soup.

i found this recipe on pinterest.

ingredients:

can of rotel
can of corn
can of black beans (drained & rinsed)
2 frozen chicken breasts (i used 3)
8 oz cream cheese
1 packet dry ranch dressing
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder

directions:

1. put all ingredients in crock pot.
2. cook 6-8 hours on low/medium.
3. shred chicken when tender. i used two forks to do this.


so there you have it!

this recipe is great because it's so simple & yummy.
i'd definitely recommend it for a football or holiday party.
it's good with tortilla chips, french bread, or just all on its own.

the back and forth.

Justin had to turn on the air conditioner again last night.  It's October 26 - doesn't that mean the heater can stay on? Doesn't...
