From a Church Cookbook:
1 (15oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
2 (14.5oz) cans chicken broth
1 (10oz) can chunk chicken
1 (15oz) can black beans
1 (10oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilies I used Rotell tomatoes
Open the cans of corn,chicken broth,chunk chicken,black beans,and diced tomatoes with green chilies. Poor everything into a large sauce pan or stock pot. Simmer over medium heat until chicken is heated
through. Serve with crushed tortilla chips and a dollop of sour cream on top, we also use salsa on top
and cheese. This is Yummy!!
Note: The rotell tomatoes makes it a lil bit more spicy, one day I was out of those and just used a
regular can of diced tomatoes and added a can of green chilies and it made it a milder soup.
I love to cook and will be sharing my favorite recipes with you as often as I can. I will share a variety of recipes, Hope you enjoy them!

White Chili " A unique recipe"
From a Church Cookbook:
This recipe is unique and different than other white chili recipes I looked at because of its ingredients and
that it is from a spanish woman and handed down to her from her mother-in-law.
2 1/2-3 c. water
4 chicken breast halves
1 teas lemon pepper
Simmer together. Cut chicken into cubes.
Add:
1 clove garlic
1 c. chopped onion
Saute in butter: add to broth and chicken
Add:
2 cans white corn
2 (4oz) cans of green chili's
1 teas. ground cumin
juice of 1 lime
2 (15oz) cans of undrained white northern beans
Heat together. Serve with corn chips and cheese.
Note: She uses frozen corn instead of canned and homemade beans would be great to use as well. This is a good food storage recipe as well.
Note: I am buying the ingredients to make this, will let you know how well I like it when I make it, in the mean time if anyone makes it please let me know how you like it. I'd appreciate any comments on any recipes i've posted, you can post on my other site. Thanks.

Oven Fried Pork Chops
From a Church Cookbook:
4-6 pork chops
up to a cube butter
1 beaten egg
2 Tbsp milk
2c. seasoned bread crumbs,or crackercumbs, or potatochip crumbs (or shake and bake mixture)
I used seasoned bread crumbs.
Place small thin cubed butter pieces into a 9X13 glass dish. Combine egg and milk in one bowl and bread crumbs in another. Dip chops into egg mixture and then coat with bread crumbs. Place in buttered
dish. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn chops over. Bake another 15 to 20 minutes or
until no pink remains in chops and juices run clear.
Note: I added a thin cube of butter on top of chops as well, the more butter you add in bottum of pan
gives you a crispier coat of batter for chops. This is Yummy!!
