Welcome back! After a bit of a break from Friday Finds following #250 (which you should check out because it includes fun finds from other teachers), I’m excited to get this series going again!

Earlier this year, as we began planning our trip to Europe, the first thing we did was purchase Rick Steves: Europe through the Back Door book.
It was incredibly helpful in choosing sights and getting lots of travel and packing advice.

One thing I missed the most food-wise while in Europe for a month was Mexican food! The first night we got home, I tried a new recipe: Slow Cooker Creamy Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Soup (Recipe Runner)
We really enjoyed it! I made a few additions, including 1 chopped chipotle in adobo (about 1-2 T.), which gave it a soft smokey flavor with just the tiniest bit of spice. I also toasted up some soft burrito shells that needed to be used up, then threw them in at the end right before serving, creating a nice thickened texture.
