So last night I made a chicken tortilla soup. Nothing special, except the hit of the soup was the crispy corn tortilla strips. I ussally use store bought chips, but I had some white corn tortillas and I cut them in thin strips and fried them. Pretty good. Nothing special about the soup except I am trying to cut back on meat and so I added more beans, corns and green chiles. I am starting to read some Michael Pollan books and I think I want to try and implement some of the ideas. I keep putting off a garden until I have a bigger yard, but who knows when that will happen! So Temple's violin teacher talked to me about growing a salad garden. Her husband is some sort of plant guy and I thought it might be interesting. We are eating pho for dinner tonight, but tomorrow I am going to try fried chicken and I am going to soak it in buttermilk!
