It'll be our little secret. When I need a brain break at work I browse through recipes too. One of my favorite websites right now is www.recipezaar.com because I can browse through recipes based on diet restrictions, type of meal (breakfast, dinner, dessert), level of effort, amount of ingredients, ingredients to include or omit, etc. I'm slightly obsessed and can't stop telling people about it. The next time you're bored take a peak at it ....

This sounds good, but it could be tweaked a little to lower the fat and the sodium--806 mg of sodium per serving is way high.

Specifically, use low sodium chicken broth; eliminate the extra 1/2 teaspoon of salt, there is so much flavor from the other spices, you will never miss it.
Use low fat or fat free sour cream; use reduced fat cheese.
