Easy Enchiladas #SundayFunday
This easy enchilada recipe has been a staple in our household for many years. It is not a true enchilada recipe as it uses flour tortillas instead of traditional corn tortillas, but it is easy to make, delicious to eat, and can be made ahead of time.

Repurposing Meatloaf Two Ways
Last Saturday, my brother, Dick, joined us for dinner. We had Mass before he was scheduled to arrive so I decided to make Crockpot Meatloaf so it would be ready when we got home. I made a batch and a half because Rae had said she would make Meatloaf Sandwiches for dinner on Sunday.

Huevos Rancheros translates to Ranch Style Eggs. This is a breakfast commonly served to ranch hands in Mexico to help them power through busy, active days. I am sharing a lightened up version that is just as delicious but better suited for a less busy lifestyle and career.

Enfrijoladas de Pollo #SundayFunday
Happy Halloween!!!
Have you ever tried Enfrijoladas? In Mexico, when they have leftover frijoles (beans) and stale corn tortillas they turn them into Enfrijoladas. They are quick easy and versatile. You can top them with fried eggs or fill them with other leftovers. Or you can simply sprinkle them with cheese and dig in. In this case I filled them with leftover chicken.
