Chicken and Spinach Enchiladas

This is another recipe from Recipe Girl that I'm anxious to try. The picture is from Recipe Girl also. When I have a chance to make the recipe I will be posting my own picture, but until then her picture will show you what it looks like - her picture is probably better than mine would be anyway, LOL! This recipe also looks to be quick and easy, one of my favorite requirements, as well as delicious - I love the idea of the spinach added to the filling. The only changes I will make when I prepare it is to add sliced black olives and onions to the chicken mixture. If you give this recipe a try I would love to hear your opinion on it!

I found this recipe at Recipe Girl which has now become one of my favorite recipe sites. She has tons of recipes listed and all of them look so good I don't know where to start on trying them. These looked very simple and like they would work really well with homemade flour tortillas, and sometimes, especially during the summer, I just want something really quick and easy to make but that still tastes delicious. These qualify on all levels! You can get as fancy as you want with the toppings or eat them with just a little salsa and sour cream and either way they are quick, easy and taste wonderful!

Angel Pudding

I came across this recipe in one of my Mom's old cookbooks. I really can't remember if she ever made it or not but she had noted on the recipe that it was really good so she must have at least been served it on some occasion. It sounded good to me so I decided to give it a try and I was mostly pleased with the way it turned out. It is a very simple, easy dessert to put together. I baked my angel food cake but it would really be quick to put together if you purchased an angel food cake already prepared. I am not a big fan of instant pudding so if I make it again I will make it with cooked pudding - then I think that I would be great.

I will be keeping this recipe handy though, for when I need a fast dessert to put together for unexpected company.

Cheesy Taco Casserole

I saw this recipe on Averie Cooks  and decided to give it a try with a few minor changes. I'm really glad that I did. I was pleased with the flavor and with the ease of making it. The recipe suggested lining the baking dish with foil, which I did, and that made the clean up really easy also. So.....what's not to like? The recipe has a rice base and no tortillas. Taco's with no tortillas??? Well, the taco flavoring is so good I didn't even miss the tortillas! If you like tacos, have a family to feed and need something easy to throw together, you really ought to give this a try!
