Having just come home from the gym hungry, and finding myself disinclined to drive to teh grocery in the snow, I have (by coincidence) tossed the following into the pot:

2/3 c brown rice
1/3 c wild rice
1 can diced green chiles
1 can old el paso green enchilada sauce
That can refilled with chicken broth
one slice of red onion, diced fine
three garlic cloves
1 tablespoon of dried cilantro
Salt and pepper to taste.

We can call it Sonora Jambalaya if it works out well. Though I just might throw in a table spoon or two of Mrs Renfro's green salsa for heat, as well.

I'll keep ya posted.

I don't have proportions, but these are the basic ingredients.

Caldo de Pollo con Calabaza1 Rotisserie chicken, shred it, boil the carcas down for stock, you know, basic chicken stock. Chop up the remaining meat and prep the rest of the ingredients while you're waiting. Avoid bones and icky stuff ( ... )

SOUPY SOUP! khessta February 22 2007, 23:57:48 UTC
It ain't caldo, but it's my personal favorite: sopa de albondigas!

2 bunches green onions, chopped
2 TBS olive oil
1 7-oz can chopped green chiles
1 28-oz can broken tomatoes
1 TBS dried oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 to 1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cumin
1 uart water
2 pounds leanest hamburger
2 eggs
1/2 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Sautee onions in hot oil in a large soup pot until limp. Add chiles, tomatoes and seasonings. Add water. Bring to a steady boil. As soup comes to a boil, wet your hands and combine hamburger, eggs, flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Form into 1-inch balls. Do not brown.
Drop into soup one by one as you make them, keeping soup at a boil. When all are added, turn heat to low and simmer. Taste to adjust seasoning.
cook 45 mins. Makes 8 servings.

I'm obsessed with avocados and lime, and I usually garnish my bowl with both.
