yum....also: Please help!

A friend asked me recently what my "go to" recipe was. What an excellent topic - thank you, Megan! I wrote it out and forgot to give it to her so I'm going to share it (sorry to immediate family - you already know it because its Mom's recipe) and hope that it will inspire someone or ones to reciprocate. Please if you have a recipe that is delicious, healthy, easy or can be frozen (or all these things!) I would love to have it - we need some fresh ideas.
PS: Megan, if you're reading this, we tried your salsa/brown sugar chicken recipe and it was delish - thank you!

White Chicken Chili
  • 4 cans of white beans, drained
  • 4 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 cans of corn, drained
  • 2 small cans of green chillies
  • 1 red pepper
  • 2 Tbs garlic powder
  • 1 Tbs oregano
  • 2-2.5 Tbs cumin
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1-24oz sour cream
  • 4 cups grated cheese to sprinkle on top once served
Combine all ingredients except sour cream and cheese. If you like it hotter, add more pepper - all seasonings consider "to taste". Heat on med-high, let simmer about 30 minutes, adding sour cream 10 minutes before serving. Good with tortilla chips, and freezes well. This makes five meals for Dave and I - I freeze four 24oz containers (that is, I use the containers sour cream/yogurt etc come in), and when I don't feel like cooking, I thaw out one and boom, dinner.

What is YOUR go-to dinner recipe?
