First off.....I know it has been awhile. School is about to begin and I have been pretty busy with stuff.....it'll probably be about a week before I post another "regular" entry.
As far as recipes...I have been asked, quite a bit, if these are "my" recipes. I guess mine versus Betty Crocker. ;) I'm flattered by the question as they seem to be enjoyed.
The basic recipe is not mine (for the most part.) I will get a recipe, but then I make changes. So in that respect, it's mine, but I didn't create the recipe idea, does that make sense? Some are recipes that I have and don't know from where. Some are MINE....meaning nobody told me what to do, I just did stuff until I liked it.
The Charro Beans are MINE. Granted, you can probably find the same, or very nearly same, recipe. But, I didn't get it from someone....I just did it.
This following recipe is mine. There are many out there, I'm sure, that are similar. But this is one that I pulled out of my own noggin. HOPE YOU ENJOY!

CHICKEN ENCHILADAS
ingredients:
1 deboned chicken; (I either boil a whole bird and debone it, or buy a rotisserie and debone it. When in a SERIOUS hurry, I buy/use precooked cubed chicken breast.)
1 green pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
2 tsp butter
1 pound Velveeta, cubed
1 small can milk
1 can Rotel
flour tortillas
grated cheese
Have chicken ready (deboned and cut into bite-sized pieces.)
In pan, melt butter. Saute onion and pepper until tender.
add the Velveeta, milk and Rotel. You need to stir pretty consistently as the milk will scorch if you let it sit long.
Make sure everything is melted and there are no chunks of cheese.
Remove from heat. Stir in chicken pieces.
In a 9 x 13 casserole sprayed with Pam, layer some bite sized pieces of flour tortillas. (do not make a SOLID layer of tortillas...the sauce needs to get under a little bit. Otherwise the tortillas will bake to a solid, tough mess.) (and no...I don't roll the chicken enchiladas...only the beef.)
Pour half the cheese/chicken mixture over the tortillas.
Repeat tortilla then cheese/chicken mixture layers.
Top with grated cheese. I do not recommend cheddar, as it is a bit too greasy for this dish. I would recommend colby jack.
