I'm
so glad you stopped by today. Ever since I was asked to do
this recipe column on MomSaves.com I've been searching my
files for recipes I thought you would like.
Even though I'm retired now, I try to keep busy. I have bridge
club two afternoons a week, volunteer at the hospital on Mondays,
teach a Sunday School class and do substitute teaching when
I can fit it into my schedule. Can't see myself sitting around
knitting in a rocking chair. I did try to learn how to knit
one time - ended up with a very crooked pot holder - but that's
another story.
Since I'm out and around most days I don't have time for complicated
recipes with exotic ingredients. I prefer quick and easy recipes.
Here's one I think you'll like. |

Easy
Enchiladas
My daughter and grandchildren came over
for lunch on Sunday and we made these. They are SO
EASY to make and taste wonderful! |
|
|
Ingredients:
1 pound
ground chuck
1 small onion, chopped
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can tomato soup, undiluted
1 (10 oz.) can mild enchilada sauce
8 (7 or 8 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
Sour cream (optional)
Sliced black olives (optional) |
|
Instructions:
Cook
beef and onion in large skillet over medium-high heat until
meat is browned, stirring until it crumbles, drain and return
to skillet.
Stir soup and enchilada sauce into meat mixture. Spread
1/4 cup meat mixture onto each tortilla then sprinkle cheese
over meat mixture (use about 1/2 of cheese for this). Roll
up tortillas; place seam side down in a greased 13 x 9 x
2-inch baking dish. Pour remaining meat mixture over tortillas.
Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Uncover and
sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese; bake 5 more minutes
or until cheese melts. Serve with sour cream and olives,
if desired. Yield: 4 servings. |

Household Tips |
Having
trouble opening those "easy-open" jars? Try
putting on
rubber gloves or wrapping a rubber band around the lid.
|
|
| Use
less cooking oil. When you buy a new bottle don't remove
the bottle seal - simply poke a few holes in it with a sharp
knife. You will be surprised at how much longer it lasts. |

|
| Cut
SOS pads in half before using them. Two halves will last
longer than one whole plus the steel wool will sharpen your
scissors. |
|
| Frustrated
by the adhesive left when you remove labels or stickers
from glass? You can quickly remove it adding a little
peanut butter to a damp cloth and rubbing the spot. Wipe
off adhesive and pb with another part of the cloth. Works
great! |

New
way to cook spaghetti.
Bring water to a boil then turn off burner. Add dry spaghetti,
cover and let it set the as long as the directions say to
cook it. Spaghetti will be cooked perfectly and won't stick
together. |

Does
your leftover salad get yucky when stored in the refrigerator?
Put it in a storage container and cover with a paper towel.
Put lid on and store upside-down in the refrigerator. This
is fantastic - salad stays fresh much longer. If you take
some out replace the paper towel before
re-storing in the fridge. |
