Veggie Enchilada Stack
It is a Veggie Enchilada Stack kinda night. Veggies, chicken, beans, cheese and tortillas sound like a must make dinner. It’s all about the veggies… The beauty of this recipe is you can use whatever veggies you have on hand (or whatever ones your family will eat). This time around I stuck with squash, zucchini and peppers. Next time I am going to throw in some eggplant and possibly mushrooms for even more heartiness. One of the secrets of this dish is to season every layer, including the veggies. I kept it simple with just some salt, pepper and chili powder but made sure there was enough to make…

Chicken Enchilada Soup
Chicken Enchilada Soup is on my menu this weekend… even though it is still 90 something here… but I am living vicariously though my friends in other parts of the world who are starting to enjoy more Fall like weather.

Skillet Chicken Enchiladas
Skillet Chicken Enchiladas are the perfect quick fix dinner and I am all about a quick fix dinner. After coming home from work I defiantly love the idea of dinner being ready in less than 45 minutes. One Pan and DONE! Everything for this recipe is all done in one skillet, yes you read that right ONE SKILLET! You make the sauce, cook the chicken and finish it all in one skillet. That means only one skillet to clean and tons of flavor being created. Make sure you use a high side skillet and not a shallow skillet… it will bubble over once you add in the tortillas…

Chicken Enchilada Casserole
Is there anything better than a casserole on a busy weeknight? In my world I am all about a super easy casserole any time, but especially on those busy nights. Even better when it is an enchilada casserole! All in one… One of the best things about a casserole is the fact that everything is all packed into on dish. There are typically fewer pans to clean up, it serves a lot of people and there is something just so comforting about a casserole. This enchilada version is all that and more. There is chicken, beans, rice, cheese and a little heat in each bite, just like your favorite enchiladas.…

Homemade is so much better
I could eat some type of Mexican food EVERY meal. Given how much I love Mexican food I have been working on a staple in my kitchen…enchilada sauce. Finally I have created one that I LOVE and that is perfect for all my casseroles, soups and of course, enchiladas. Homemade is worth it First off…look at the color. Isn’t it beautiful? I love the deep reddish, orange color with the bits of spices and herbs running through it. It adds a beautiful color to your dishes for sure. Secondly the taste. This sauce has a little heat from the chili powder, but not too much. It also has a…
