After reading this post you're all going to know how truly lazy I am. I like to think of it not as lazy, but as using my skills of innovation to come up with the most efficient way of doing something so that in the end I expend the least possible amount of energy to reach the goal. Now THAT'S called positive self-talk. Or as some call it, delusion.
Nowhere is my laziness more apparent than in the kitchen. I actually used to enjoy cooking before I started my business. But once I poured myself whole-heartedly into this new venture, the desire for domesticity took a back seat. And then it just full-on jumped out of the car. Last summer I shared my super-hero "green breakfast" -- a green smoothie that I still drink faithfully each morning (with a slight tweak that you can find in the comments of the post) and it was well-received. People still mention it to me to this day.
I am now prepared once again to turn your life upside down with the new super-yummy soup I just ate for lunch. I can take no credit for creating this recipe. The trail goes to my mom then her co-worker and then it goes cold. But I have decided to take it upon myself to name this soup I had no part in discovering and to pass it on to all of you so that your lives can be improved as mine has been.
LAZY SOUP
1 26oz can chicken w/rice
1 10oz can ROTEL original diced tomatoes & green chilies
1 15 oz can ranch style black beans
1 12.5oz can chicken breast
Open all four cans, dump them in a bowl together (juice/water & all), break up the chicken chunks, stir together, put your portion in a bowl and heat in the microwave. Then top with crunchy tortilla chips.

Nothing takes less energy except the kind of soup where you only have to open one can. But the key is that this is EXPONENTIALLY TASTIER. It's kind of torilla soup-ish. It definitely has a bit of a spicy kick to it but to me, it's pure goodness in a bowl.
I love good dairy-free soup. So if you have any recipes of your own, please pass them on. I need all the help I can get in the kitchen.
Even though I'm not the exceptional cook, whenever I come across something great that fits into my least-possible-energy-expended requirement, I feel the need to pass it on to you all. If you rely on the trends, you can expect my next great revelation in the summer of 2010. I know...you'll all be holding your breath until then.
