Some Yummy Recipes

So my roommate moved out exactly one week ago:-) I did get a few good recipes from her, so I thought I would post them. They are very easy and fast to make!

Chicken TNT

1-1.5lb chicken skinless boneless thights/breasts
Dice up and cook in pot with oil.
Add:
5 cans mexican Rotel tomates
1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet dry onion soup mix
fresh cilantro

Let simmer low to medium heat for 20-30 mins. Serve over rice. Serve with cheese and sour cream. (I like to wrap mine inside a tortilla for a Chicken TNT burrito!)

Red Beans and Rice

1/2 onion chopped
1 can kidney beans
1 cup rice
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 cup cheddar cheese

Drain beans and reserve juice- add water to make 2.5 cups liquid. Combine beans, rice, onions, garlic salt, and chili powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes covered. Remove from heat until liquid is absorbed and then put cheese on it till it melts.

Hello!

Well, this is my official first try at this whole blog thing. There is a sister in my hall that does this, and she says it is a great way to keep in touch with friends that live far away. She posts updates of what she is up to, and has lots of pictures of her new baby. People can leave comments if they want, or just read it when they are bored. So I guess that is what I am going to try to do. Enjoy!
