    I made this soup! It was really good. I don't like chili,so I substituted a can of southwest- seasoned pinto beans. I added some of Tabatha Brown's sweet/smoky seasoning blend,and a bit of chopped white onion on top before serving.
    I served cheddar-Chipotle tortilla strips with it.
    Delicious 😋

    I recently made a quick chicken toritilla soup. Could go in a crocpot but I just cooked it low & slow on the stovetop. Mostly canned/boxed ingredients but I did sautee chopped yellow onions first, then added in: chicken bone broth, corn (southwest style if you can find it), diced tomatoes, and a can of Rotel, beans of your choice, canned chicken. Season to taste, turmeric and some red chili flakes were key!
    Served with shredded cheese, avocado slices and tortilla chips.

    I am so glad that you make this video's. Love, love, love the old cookbooks! I live in the Netherlands and here we don't have those kind of soups in cans, so some recipes are not for me. Collecting old cookbooks is kind of addicting, my collection of old cookbooks is getting bigger and bigger. I agree with you that the notes (and extra written papers in a cookbook) is great! My oldest cookbook is from 1898. And I love my cookbooks from the wartime (1940-1945) when there was next to nothing and everything was only available with foodstamps, until at least 1950.... Very special recipes in these cookbooks. Keep up the good work, it is a great hobby: mixing history with cooking is our thing!

    My quick go-to soup is always Taco Soup! I always have taco meat in the freezer so it’s super quick…. Chili beans, corn, hot Rotel, enchilada sauce, a packet of ranch seasoning. You can’t beat it topped with cheese, sour cream, and avocado!

    I really like taco soup or chili where you just open a bunch of cans and dump into a slow cooker, maybe with cooked ground meat and some spices. I buy more salt free canned beans and tomatoes than I did back in the day, which makes it feel more healthy!

    Chaffing dishes give elegant height variation to the set table or buffet spread. Keeping food hot was super important too. Guest's food would still be appetizingly warm by the time they walk to their chairs and sit down with their plates if chaffing dish kept food hot.

    Living in New Mexico we start the fall months off with Green Chili Stew...I make mine with beef instead of pork. The green chili comes in the month of Sept. and it is heavenly. I cook mine in the crock pot all day and by the time supper rolls around our tongues and eye balls are bulging out of our heads! I eat peanut butter with mine which folks think I am a WEIRDO! So be it! LOL

Interestingly, I have a recipe video for a South of the Border soup, but it's chicken based and it's from the Amish Canning Cookbook.

      @cooking_the_books  Рік тому +1

      Aw thank you! The spoon was a gift a friend of mine picked up while she was living in Germany. I do think this soup has a little bit of sweetness to it, but not overly so. I think the smokiness of the bean soup helped. You could definitely sub in tomato sauce for the tomato soup instead, I've done that before in recipes and it has worked out well.
