Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Campbell’s Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup for Southwestern recipes

Dilute with chicken broth or stock to desired consistency (2 to 4 cups)

Diced or shredded chicken. (I used the Tyson ready to eat chicken for salads)

Corn (canned or frozen) I like canned fiesta corn with red & green diced peppers

Black beans (optional) drained and rinsed

Salt, pepper and chili powder to taste. (I used white ground pepper)

Garnish with baked tortilla strips. I roll up then cut wheat or flour tortillas with my pizza cutter into thin strips. Separate and toss strips onto cookie sheet or baking stone. Bake until they start to brown. Turn or toss occasionally during baking. This can also be done in the microwave oven on a small stone or paper plate.

Eleven Reasons to List During the Holidays

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

1) People who look for a home during the Holidays are more serious buyers!

2) Serious buyers have fewer houses to choose from during the Holidays and less competition means more money for you!

3) Since the supply of listings will dramatically increase in January, there will be less demand for your particular home.  Less demand means less money for you!

4) Houses show better when decorated for the Holidays!

5) Buyers are more emotional during the Holidays, so they are more likely to pay your price!

6) Buyers have more time to look for a home during the Holidays than they do during a normal work week!

7) Some people must buy before the end of the year for tax reasons!

8) January is traditionally the month for employees to begin new jobs.  Since transferees cannot wait until spring to buy, you must be on the market now to capture those buyers!

9) You can still be on the market, but you have the option to restrict showings during the six or seven days during the Holidays!

10) You can sell now for more money and we will provide for a delayed closing or extended occupancy until early next year!

11) By selling now, you may have an opportunity to be a non-contingent buyer in the Spring when many more houses are on the market for less money.  This will allow you to sell high and buy low!
