for What’s for Dinner Wednesday…
If you play, pick it up. Let me or Krisco know if you can’t figure it out. If you don’t play, you should! Great ideas for dinner!

And any one else out there who would be moronic determined enough to try this. Do not try to unscrew the gunked up cap off an old tube of Household Cement, with your teeth. It’s really hard to get those stringy dried pieces out of your molars. And, it taste bad. Really. Bad.

Must be when you sort of start life without school involved that gets us stuck. I dunno, but apparently, this is me. Thanks Kdubs!

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas that Rock
For What’s for Dinner Wednesdays…
garnished with cilantro, a bit of red onion, and cheese, before the cream
I tend to do recipes in free form, because I kind of cook that way…
Start with about half an onion, half a red pepper, a can of diced green chiles, and a pat of butter (or Pam, if you’re counting).
Chop onion and pepper, dump with green chiles in a good sized sauce pan, with the butter. Saute til soft.
Add 2 8oz. blocks of cream cheese, stir til melted, on low. Throw in about 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken, and 2/3 C. of heavy cream (sorry about the calories, this are good, not dietetic), and 2 C. shredded jack or mixed mexican cheese. Mmmm, mmmmm. Continue on low heat til thoroughly blended.
Then, use the large flour tortillas, your favorite kind, and spoon a good sized whollup of the enchilada filling on one…maybe 2/3 a cup? Roll, place seam side down in a greased/sprayed large baking dish. Repeat til mixture is gone.
It makes about 12 of those big enchiladas, and the ones you don’t want to eat right away, freeze great, in a plastic bag.
The best part follows. Pour about 1 C of heavy cream over the enchiladas in the baking dish, and top with another cup to 2 cups of shredded cheese. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or so, til bubbly and lightly browned. Good stuff. I serve with fresh guacamole, queso and chips. But then, I’ve got 12 pounds to lose. So serve at your own risk.

It’s an Unschooling Carnival! Over at Atypical Homeschool, today (I think) is the last day for submissions, and the Carnival commences tomorrow. Personally, I’m just relieved there’s an entire site dedicated to other weirdos eclectic schoolers.
