Enchiladas

Hello all,

I made Enchiladas out of Cotton Country (pg. 276) today and they were very good! I tweaked the recipe some by adding the store bought Enchilada sauce to the bottom of the pan so the tortillas would not dry out when I heated them in the oven. The recipe includes ingredients for tortills made from Bisquick, cornmeal, and water but I just used store bought. I didn't have any red pepper so I omited it, but the chili powder and dash of hot sauce is plenty of heat. This entree would be good paired with gaucamole and rice. Everyone should try this, it's simple and good. Enjoy!

I am making Paula Dean's Oven Roasted Pork Ribs tomorrow. I will let everyone know how they turn out.

Baked Briskit

I made Baked Brisket twice on Sunday night. This recipe is out of Cotton Country and was very good. I had a few slices after my Chemistry class last night. The reason I made it twice was because my glass Pyrex broke in the oven the first time. You place the seasoned brisket on top of an onion and cook with Pepsi, I used Coke. The sauce that is created by the Coke and the meat drippings (fat) is delicious. Well, I love brisket and this was a good one. I would recommend adding a little Coke when you cook the brisket uncovered for 30 minutes at 475. It needs some liquid. Bon Appetit.
