White Chili (for Kirk)

ummm now I have to remember..... Problem was I didn't follow an exact recipie.

So I made a white chili on a cool day this spring and Kirk came over to help with one of our house projects. He has been asking for the recipe ever since. It has been too hot though to cook chili! Now that fall has come around again I am cooking this type of stuff again. I will try to recreate it this week. In the meantime, here is a start.

This was the base for the recipe, only instead of the cream of chicken soup I made a roux with butter and flour then added chicken stock.I also used cream instead of regular milk. I also made it with chicken, but I will probably make it with turkey after Thanksgiving to use up leftovers.

The Healthy Stuff

This weekend my brother and Sister in Law had an open house for their new baby. My side was in charge of bringing the "healthy stuff."

Izzy had the fruit tray and I had the veggie tray, of course we were prepping in the same kitchen so there was lots of sharing going on. These are our results.

Yea, we like produce. Do you have a problem with that?
