Sumptuous Saturday

Hola Fall!

SH/CH is now adding Sumptuous Saturday's to my weekly Creating Home blog and posts. I want to share an easy recipe and help set the table for some family time! This week we are taking fall south of the border. Always a family favorite!

Please feel free to share your favorite family recipes.

Create a special setting, even if it is just a Saturday night!

 Nothing welcomes the cool evenings of fall like a warm bowl of soup. This week I am sharing one of my quick and easy soups with you, Cheesy Taco Soup.  
Muy Delicioso!

Recipe:

2 cans of chicken broth

1 can of water

1 can Rotel Cilantro Lime flavor

1 package of Old El Paso Cheesy Taco seasoning mix

1 cup of corn

1 cup of black beans

2 cups of pulled rotisserie chicken

Serves 4

Combine all ingredients (you don't have to be exact with the measurements) in a large pot and simmer for 15 minutes. Serve with corn chips and sour cream for a yummy topping. 
You can double the recipe to serve more - and have left overs!

Creating Cozy!

Bright and Airy Summer Decor

Goes warm and cozy for the cooler months!

Pillows From World Market all under $100

I have to admit, I was a little worried about how to take my living spaces from my bright fresh light teal blues and greens to the warm and cozy feeling we all crave in the colder months. Here's the easy of it all. Just change out your pillows! Pop in a warmer color and add deeper versions of the colors you already have! It will work I swear! My light smokey teal pillow paired beautifully with burnt orange and deeper teals to create that curl up by the fire feeling I wanted! Then just splash the same colors around the room in candles, fresh flowers, and accessories.

Now all I need is a fire!

 

 

 

I added these cozy orange floor pillows beside the fire place by covering euro size pillows with some left over fabric from another project. Now there is a reason to get cozy by the fire! Other small touches like the deep teal candles and the orange flowering branches, add more of those warmer tones. A homemade spray of leaves, berries and pine cones finishes off the fall look!

See it's that easy! Now go and cozy up those rooms, cold winter nights are just around the corner!
