Hello!
I feel like I've been gone for ages....wait...I have. Ug. This 'working mom' thing has got me beat, but I'm managing. My family is still fed, my house is (moderately) clean...on second though, no, it's a dump. But at least my family is being fed! Seriously though, work is going very well, and I really enjoy spending time with the senior citizens I work with. I'm just not used to being away from home all day. So because I'm running around like a chicken with her head cut off, I've been relying on my slow cooker to keep things going. Here, from Melissa d'Arabian's "Ten Dollar Dinners" is the most amazing chicken soup EVARRRRR! My family loved it so much there weren't any leftovers. Ingredients 3 chicken thighs , skin removed (I used boneless skinless chicken breasts) 10 -ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles 1 1/2 cups cooked black beans 1 1/2 cups chicken broth 1 1/2 cups water 1 yellow onion, finely chopped 3
