Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas

Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas



The other night I was looking around the kitchen and the pantry to see what I had available, It had been a while since I went grocery shopping for a full blown put together meal. So.. I came up with this! I guess it would be kind of like a chicken enchilada thing. So.. here is the recipe :D
Super Simple Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound of chicken (shredded once cooked)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 4 tortillas
  • 1 bottle hot taco bell sauce (found it at Walmart, but you could probably even just use a bunch of their packets if you wanted to take the time)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • water (for taco seasoning.. whatever it says on the packet)
Instructions:
  1. Cut up your chicken into cubes and cook in a nonstick skillet. Add the taco seasoning and as much water as the packet says you need. As the chicken is cooking try to separate it as much as you can so you can “shred" it or even just break it up in to smaller pieces. 
  2. Spray a baking pan with nonstick spray. Pour a 1/4 of your taco bell hot sauce on the bottom of a baking pan and spread it around evenly.
  3. Take your tortillas and lay them over the sauce one at a time and spoon in your chicken mixture. Fold over tortilla and fill in another one. My baking pan fit 4 tortillas.. but I was using a weird tinfoil kind of pan that is disposable and it was a little smaller.. so you might be able to fit more.
  4. Once all of your tortillas are filled up and rolled over, pour on the rest of your hot sauce and try to cover as much of the tortillas as you can. Once you are done doing that sprinkle with your cheese. And of course you can use more cheese if you want it more cheese.. I only had a cup.. I might have used more.. I love cheese.
  5. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. 
ENJOY!

Super Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies!

Ok now first off I have to say that this is not MY recipe. It is one I found on pinterest. It is by far my favorite peanut butter cookie recipe I have tried. The cookie dough doesn’t stay firm enough to press in the fork marks.. BUT they spread out and get huge and they are still nice and chewy without being gooey. I found the original recipe here  http://www.momtastic.com/cooking-recipes/dessert/164457-classic-peanut-butter-cookies Now.. on this website it looks like she was able to get the fork marks.. so I am not sure what I am doing that is so different.. maybe it is that I just dump all the ingredients in a bowl at the same time and don’t do dry and wet separate at first.. but oh well… this is how I do it :) Ingredients: 2 cups flour 1/2 tsp baking soda or maybe a tini bit more… which might be why mine spread out more 1/4 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1 1/4 cup white sugar 1 cup softened butter (I do the “no no" and slightly soften in t...

Corned Beef and Cabbage

Well, its St. Patricks day... so I decided to try my hand at making corned beef and cabbage. I have never made it before but I was very very pleasently surprised with how it turned out. Corned beef is one of my husbands absolute favorite foods, and he says the way I cooked it was the best he has ever had. I also liked it, especially for my first time ever eating it. Here is how its done! Ingredients: Package of corned beef (you can get it at Walmart, Harmons, Smiths, most grocery stores) Salt Water 1 head of cabbage Instructions: (Now to make your own corned beef from scratch it literally takes 7-10 days to cure.. so that is why I (and most people) buy it packaged.) Take your corned beef and trim off a little bit of the fat on top. Me and my husband both have texture issues.. and it didn't seem to affect how moist the meat was. And honestly you can skip this step if it seems like too much of a pain, all the fat dissolved off anyways. Take a rack (I used a co...

Meaty Deep Dish Pizza

Tonight I was thinking PIZZA! Its the weekend, me and my husband had some episodes of Master Chef to catch up on.. so whats better than pizza?! As you can see in this picture.. there was some dough hanging over the edges.. I cut it off. This is what it looked like cut off so I decided to fold it down so the pie would look prettier. Ready for the oven! All popped out of the pan and ready for devouring.  Sooooooooooo good! I was worried that it was going to be soggy once I cut into it but that liquid was the only bit that was in there.. it was not soggy at all I promise.. it was amazing. I had some spring form pans that I hadn't used yet, and thought it would be a great recipe to test them out with. So... lets get to the good stuff shall we? ☺ Ingredients for Dough: 1 (.25 oz package) of active dry yeast 1 tsp white sugar 1 cup warm water  2 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder 1-2 tsp Ital...
