Enchilada Lasagna

I love me an enchilada.   As long as there is no corn tortilla-only flour...so basically only when I (or my step mommy) makes it.

Ingredients
2 lbs hamburger
2 tbsp Minced onion
2 tsp Garlic Salt
2 tbsp Taco Seasoning
2 tsp Cumin
1 (8 ounce) can of enchilada sauce
1 (4ounce) can tomato sauce
1 can drained black beans
Tortillas
Mexican shredded cheese
Black olives (optional)
Salsa (optional)
Sour Cream (optional)
Cilantro

Brown hamburger with minced onions and garlic salt.
Add taco season, cumin, enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, and black beans (I've also been known to dice some of the black olives and throw them in)
Spray baking dish.
Layer meat, cheese, tortillas; repeat.  (sometimes I do 2 layers; sometimes 3).
Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.

When you take it out; sprinkle some fresh chopped cilantro over.   Serve with salsa, black olives and maybe some sour cream to taste :-)

4Star--both older children eat it reluctantly; half a star each; the baby, mom and dad inhale the rest!

MN Wild Rice Burgers

After a recent trip to Duluth, where I had the BEST wild rice burger at Fitgers Brewhouse, I came home and decided to try my hand at it.    I googled and found this recipe that even MENTIONED Fitgers version, so I knew I had to start there!   I started off by cooking up a batch of wild rice.   I'd say it made about 3 cups cooked. While the wild rice was cooking, I sautéed up some minced garlic, diced celery and diced onions in a tablespoon of olive oil.  Until they were translucent.  As an after though I threw these in a food chopper because I knew chunks of these items in a burger would turn my kids off! Once that was done, I mixed my wild rice and sautéed veggie mix together.   Next I threw in 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs.  The recipe above called for Asiago cheese, I however could not find any and instead used shredded parmesan.   I seasoned the mix with sea salt, crushed black pepper, oregano, thyme, paprika and caye...

Taco Soup

Image
 My blood, sweat and tears went into this one.  Its a toughy.  Okay; skip the sweat, the blood and tears just came from the butter knife I used to chop up the chicken.  WHO manages to slice open a finger with a BUTTER KNIFE?!  Oh, yeah, MOI! Other than that event; this may have been the easiest thing I've cooked in months.     The hardest part of this recipe was the fact that Fareway foods did not carry green enchilada sauce, and I had to decide what to do instead.   Here is the cast of characters: 1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed 1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed 1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes, drained 1 (15.25 oz.) can sweet corn, drained --Oh ha, you don't see this in my picture!??  Silly me; its certainly NOT because I hate corn.  Nope....must have just been missing.    1 (12.5 oz.) can white chicken breast, drained 1 (10.75 oz.) can cream of chicken soup 1 (10 oz.) c...
