Slow Cooker Latin Chicken
I added the extra chicken broth as suggested and I'm serious...Scoop it into your bowl and squeeze a lime wedge on top with a dalop of sour cream- THE LIME MAKES IT! YUM! My whole family loves it. I served it with cornbread as suggested by other reviewers and it was a perfect meal! Definately a keeper!

Cinnamon Raisin Bread II
I thought that this bread was great. It is a nice raisin bread. Great for toast or just with butter for a treat. My family loved it! I am already making again for a friend. The only thing I did the 2nd time is to add an extra Tablespoon of honey and brown sugar and an extra 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Otherwise we just love it!

Cream Soup Base
I used this recipe to make cheesy broccoli soup for a group of 40 people and it was such a HUGE hit! I usually shy away from cream soups because I am sure it will be difficult- but NOT ANY MORE! It was so easy and many asked me for the recipe. I made the recipe as described - I steamed some broccoli I had in the freezer from our summer garden and when it was steamed I dumped the broccoli and the water in and stired until blended. I also added slices of american cheese- they melted right in. PERFECT! Thanks for making me a star to my friends!!!
