The kids ate pretty much all their Easter candy for breakfast. :P I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
We were supposed to go to a pot luck for Easter dinner, but Kurt and I came down with some serious sinus colds and we decided to spare everyone and stay home. So I made this Tortilla soup for Easter dinner. Not traditional, but hopefully it will get us feeling better quick. I usually try to make meals with lots of onions and/or garlic when we've got colds at our house.
Tortilla Soup
2 Tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1 Anaheim chile, seeded, small diced
1 jalapeno chile, seeded, small diced
2 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cooked chicken breast, diced (I cut it into 3 smaller pieces sprinkle with salt, pepper, cumin and bake at 400 for 20 min.)
1 or 2 ripe avocados, chopped
chopped fresh cilantro
Garnish:
tortilla chips
shredded cheddar cheese
lime wedges
Cook onions in oil for a couple minutes. Add garlic and chilies and cook until tender. Mix in broth, tomatoes, salt, and chicken. Let simmer until heated though. Add avocados and cilantro right before serving. Place tortilla chips in each bowl, fill with soup, top with cheese and squeeze in lime.
