Saturday "Supper"... Enchilada's

 

 http://www.cooking-mexican-recipes.com/cheese_enchilada_recipe.html

     This is what I'm making for dinner and I found a website ( link above - has videos too) to make my own Enchilada sauce. The ones in the store are not appealing ingredients or taste wise. So as I often do in my kitchen I go on the hunt for a recipe to make myself. I love sauces because you can make a double batch and then next time the only thing you have to do is defrost and use. You could even double the enchilada's and freeze!
      Don't forget the refried beans, spanish rice, a coleslaw, guacamole or whatever you and your family like to go with it. Use what you have available to fill your enchilada's - cheese, chicken, beef, onion, peppers etc. It's an easy dish to make for a no-meat day.

Thursday " Tip "... Buttermilk

     Ever go to make a recipe or look up one and realize you have every thing you need, except buttermilk. Have no fear, there is a way to make buttermilk without running out to the store. This tip works for almond, coconut, soy or any other kind of non-dairy milk as well.

     For each cup of milk or non-dairy milk add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar
(regular or apple cider vinegar will work). Stir it around and let it sit for 5 minutes.

     Another option - Mix 1 3/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar with a cup of milk, stir and let it sit for 5 min.

     Now that you have your buttermilk made... enjoy the process of baking/cooking!
