Try it Out Thursday

Try It Out Thursday is dedicated to recipes, products or ideas that I find on Pinterest or receive in my e-mail. I tend to “pin” and save a lot of recipes and craft ideas and never try them so I decided that this will help me wade through the many pins and e-mails that I have.

Yes, I am still making soup. I was sitting on the couch eating some leftover soup when I realized that is what I’ve been blogging about lately and I chuckled to myself. Soup gets me ready for the fall season and if you don’t already know this about me, FALL IS MY FAVORITE SEASON!

Fall isn’t my favorite season because it gets cold or the leaves change color because it takes a while down here for any of those things to happen. It’s my favorite season because of the flavors that emerge during this time of year. I love the smoky, warm, robust flavors of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, turkey, casseroles, and of  course soups that make their debut in the fall. I know you can get those flavors any time of year but there’s just something about them in the fall.

I know the first day of Fall isn’t until September 23rd this year but I’m getting ready and I’m starting with soup!

I found a really great recipe over at Favorite Family Recipes. It’s a Copycat Recipe from a place called Cafe Rio.

It was a different way to make Tortilla Soup than I ever have but this way works really well and I think this is how I will do it from now on. The only things I did differently was use black beans instead of pinto beans and I also added some canned dice tomatoes.

Hope you’ll get a chance to try this soup out this Fall, it’s gonna be a staple in our home, FOR SURE!
