Mexican recipes

I love sweater weather, the air is crisp, the clothes are comfortable and soft and most importantly the food is warm, hearty and delicious. Let me just say, I love, love, LOVE Chicken Tortilla Soup. I think that this version of the soup is my favorite....

I know I've been MIA this week, but hopefully this recipe will bring me back. Spirits around here have been a little low lately so Jim and I decided to cheer ourselves up with Blue Moon Ale and Fish Tacos. The tacos are so easy to make about 30 minutes...
