Break Through

I am so happy I broke the 190 barrier!! Woo Hoo. Man I just thought I was never going to get past it! I am not far past it, just 189 but hopefully I can stay below.  I promise myself that when I get to 180 I am going to get myself a massage so I am really looking forward to that. I made the best chicken soup today.

Throw everything in a crock pot on high and leave it for 8 hours.

28 oz of diced or stewed tomatoes
1 clove of garlic crushed
3 cups (or more) of chicken broth
1 can tomato paste or 1 cup of tomato sauce
1 cup salsa
2 tblspns cumin
either 1 can of green chilies or you can get a can of chilies in adobo sauce and take 1 chili and cut it up and add it with a little sauce (freeze the rest of the chilies so you can use them later, they are really strong)
4 chicken breasts cut in half

This is a recipe from my Aunt Kate. You can also add a can of corn and black beans to make it thicker and eat  it with tortilla chips. Since we are off carbs those are out of the question, but this soup is still amazing!!

For Dessert:

1/2 cup of carb smart vanilla ice cream

you would not believe how much ice cream Britt can shove in a 1/2 a cup!!
