i am gonna have to do this in the next week or so to get us ready for baby...i am making a lasagna, soups, and a chicken enchillada...my mom is gonna come by once a week and make a big meal for us and my sisters will also drop things off so i think we are pretty covered.

 

here is one recipe:

 

Quote:
INGREDIENTS:

12 corn tortillas, homemade or purchased

oil

4 cups cooked, shredded chicken meat (reserve stock)

8 to 16 oz Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

Green chile sauce (recipe follows)

Sour cream

PREPARATION:

1. Make green chile sauce

2. Put about 1/2" of oil in small skillet. Dip tortillas in hot oil for just a couple of seconds until softened. Place on paper towels in layers until cool enough to handle. With kitchen scissors or knife, stack 4 and cut in quarters.

LOWFAT ALTERNATIVE: Microwave tortillas in a stack in a damp paper towel or dish towel until softened, about 1 minute.

 

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a large baking dish with Pam. Place one layer of tortillas in the dish which has a thin layer of sauce spread in it. Top with /3 of chicken meat and 1/3 of cheese. Spread 1/3 of sauce over it. Repeat to make 2nd and third layers. Sprinkle some cheese on top of sauce, if desired.

 

4. Bake for 25-35 minutes until heated through and bubbly.

i've also made them with canned soup that is a little faster...

Chicken Enchilada Casserole

 

4-6 cups cooked chicken, chopped or shredded

1 family size can cream of chicken soup

1 or 2 small cans of diced green chiles (undrained)

flour tortillas

4 cups grated cheese (~1 lb) - i like jack cheese

Combine chicken, soup and chiles. For a quicker finish, heat the filling. If you are assembling this the night before, no need to heat now.

In a greased 9x13, layer:

 

tortillas (I use small ones cut in half to cover the pan neatly and symetrically)

1/2 of chicken filling

1/2 of cheese

repeat

to make it prettier, sprinkle with paprika

Heat thoroughly, cool slightly to firm up, and serve.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
