Everyone in the house seems to have caught a virus including my computer. So while I was able to fix the computer (well not me personally, but my Comcast tech support .. it took 3 hours but it got fixed...that was an experience by itself that I'm saving for another post), the human virus seems to be lingering. Erika requested tortilla soup so this past weekend I made some. Here's my recipe, created from when I've experimented over the years trying to recreate the Tortilla soup from La Milpa restaurant in Milpitas, CA. They have the best... while theirs is the best ... mine is "pretty close" (so says Erika). Ingredients boneless skinless chicken breasts 1/2 cup chopped white onion 1 small can of sliced mushrooms or 1/2 cup of fresh mushrooms season with fresh cilantro (I use alot), salt to taste, cumin powder, a little chili powder, garlic powder, 1 Knorr or Goya bouillon chicken cube Top with: shredded Monterey Jack cheese avocado slices lime slices tortilla chip
