Welcome To My Blog

I am a very happy and blessed wife, mother, and grandmother. My love of cooking came from the love that I have for my family. It warms my heart to hear my husband or one of my children ask me to cook something for them. Not so long ago one of the ladies from my church, ask me to teach her to cook a real southern dinner of fried chicken...what an awesome honor that was! This started me to thinking that alot of newly married people would love to be able to cook a "for real" southern dinner, as well as couples that have never been introduced to the art of southern cooking.... so the blog begins. I hope everyone enjoys it and takes alot away from it. It comes from the heart, but may NOT be so heart healthy. It is Just Good Ole Fashion Southern Cooking!!!!

Chicken White Bean Chili

1 tbs. olive oil
chicken breast, diced
1 onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cumin
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
 4 cans white kidney beans, drained and rinsed
28 oz. can low sodium chicken broth
2 cups frozen whole kernel corn or 2 cans corn, rinsed and drained
2- 4oz. can green chilies
1 lime
3/4 cup lowfat mozzarella cheese
lowfat sourcream

Heat oil in a heavy sauce pan over medium heat. Add chicken and onion. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the middle. Add garlic and all other spices and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add beans and broth. Stir and simmer for 25 minutes. Add corn and chili peppers. Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add lime. Serve with cheese.

Note: I use dry northern beans and will boil on low for 3 hrs or until tender and flavor with bacon...if I have the time.
