My mom got this from one of her friends and I’ve adopted it as my comfort meal for rainy days, it’s literally 4 cans and some broth
- 1 can of canned chicken
- 1 can of rotel tomatoes (I typically do original)
- 1 can of ranch style pinto beans (black label with white writing, can be hard to miss)
- 1 can of cream of chicken soup
- ~3/4 of a container of chicken broth
Heat over medium high heat until warm and combined, stir occasionally. Serve with sour cream, shredded cheese, and top with tortilla chips!
(I usually get generic brand for all ingredients except the beans and tomatoes.)

shoutout my Venezuelan mom for this hack
my usual move is chopping half a big white onion suuuuper fine then sweating until totally transparent in a saucepan, then tossing some diced garlic in to toast it. once both are mixed and properly introduced, add a 32oz can of black beans WITH the liquid. cook on med/high heat, stirring occasionally. once the beans are thickened and you can drag your stirrer through the beans and see the bottom of the pan, take off heat quick (the line between perfect and overdone is a fickle one) add 1 (or two even) chopped up chicken bouillon cubes to it and stir until fully integrated.
best served over tostones w/ queso blanco or on arepas if you have good ones. great comfort food, easy to make a LOT of fast, and leftovers keep pretty well!

So easy so cozy so yummy so filling so ahhhhhh 🥰
I’ve always made caldo verde for weeknight dinners, but a month ago I started craving chicken noodle soup and Chef John’s recipe is my go-to with making your own roasted chicken broth.
A vegan variation of caldo verde is a game changer too tbh, so much cheaper and a batch can feed an army when you add some beans and rice

i want to know where you came from! how you've changed! how you're doing now! is that really such a crime? is this not why social media exists?

But you all already know too much ab me. Can’t let the outside circle know who I actually am, gotta keep the mysterious act up somehow

being an adult can get real busy, and I don’t have as much time to see my friends anymore. our solution for this has become a regular debrief night every 1-2 months. here’s the structure:
- cook or order a meal together
- come in the comfiest clothes
- late at night is ideal
- prepare throughout the week by building a PowerPoint with sections for each friend detailing important updates/occurrences in their lives (I like to present mine as little stories with pics for reference)
- appendix at the end of the ppt of new friends, enemies, and everyone’s “OOO” dates so we can make plans accordingly
these nights have come to be some of the best memories for us, and is now something everyone in our circles knows about - anytime something happens, someone asks us “will this/I be in the debrief now?” it’s structured fun and a great way to stay connected with my people. highly recommend if you have the time!
