Fun Things to do This Weekend in San Diego

by

Friday, March 2

The Flower Fields in Carlsbad – Finally the flower fields in Carlsbad are open for the season!  There is so much more to do than just look at the beautiful flowers here!  There are tractor wagon rides, a sweet pea maze, santa’s playground, and the Carlsbad mining company.  The cost for admission is $11 for adults and $6 for children, children 2 and under are free.  If you plan on visiting the Flower Fields more than once this season I would suggest a season pass for only $22, if you go twice you will pay the same amount why not buy an unlimited pass?  For more information visit the website for the Carlsbad Flower Field here.

Chicken Tortilla Soup – Crock Pot Recipe

by

My house smells so good right now because of this soup!  Generally I’m not a huge crock pot fan but this is so easy and delicious I had to share.  All of the ingredients I purchased are from Trader Joe’s so some of the items are kind of specific.

  • 4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 30 oz. Organic Low Sodium Chicken Broth
  • 2 Green Onions chopped
  • 1 Small Can Tomato Sauce (or if you only have large can just use half of it)
  • 1 Small Can Fire Roasted Diced Green Chiles
  • 1 Can Whole Kernel Corn
  • 1 Can Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 Can Organic Black Beans
  • 1 Package Trader Joe’s Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon Trader Joe’s Crushed Garlic

Combine all ingredients into your crock pot (except the black beans, add the beans when only 2 hours left)  Set the cook time on low for 6-7 hours, after 3-4 hours shred chicken.  Once finished add cilantro, avocado, tortilla chips, shredded cheese and sour cream.  Add a lime for garnish.  Enjoy!
