Chicken Tortilla Stew & Mango Fruit Smoothie Recipes

Sunday is shopping and prep day for me. I love shopping, especially when I get to bring something home for you. I went to Sprouts and Trader Joes and got some great ideas!

Trader Joes was featuring a Tortilla Soup Recipe that was a toss together of several ingredients. It was pretty good, but I thought I could do it better by replacing the canned chicken with some fresh and adding a fresh onion. Super easy and low in calories with just the right balance to stabilize your Blood Sugar. Here's the recipe for you my friends:

TJ's Chicken Tortilla Stew

6 Cups Organic Chicken Broth 1 1/2 Box
5 Cups Chicken Breast Cubed
1 Can TJ's Organic Diced & Fire Roasted Tomatos with Green Chiles
1 Jar TJ's Corn & Chile Tomato-less Salsa
1 Cup Organic Black Beans
1 Onion Diced

5 White Corn Tortilla Chips
3 TBSP lite 3 Cheese Blend



Sprouts had Mango's on sale, 4 for $5 and they were beautiful. Here's my morning Mango Fruit Smoothie recipe:

6 oz Aloe Vera Juice
1/4 cup Orange Peach Mango Juice
1 Scoop Vanilla Whey Protein
1 oz Sliced Mango
.5 Tblsp Coconut Oil
1 Banana
2 Tblsp Fage 2% Greek Yogurt

Here's a tip. If all your mango's are ripe and ready, cut them up and puree them. The puree is great in Smoothies as well as Mango Martini's :)
