Chicken Enchiladas

August 16, 2017 by Jan D'Atri

The Story

We eat them rolled. We eat them stacked. They’re filled with stuff and that’s a fact.

No, that isn’t Dr. Seuss talking. That’s just me describing one of our very favorite Southwestern treasures, the enchilada. In 1949, a magazine called American Food and Drink described enchiladas as a Mexican dish prepared more for tourists than for locals. Sorry folks, that was then and this is now. Today, enchiladas are enjoyed both north and south of the border, and in many different ways. They’re often filled with pork, chicken, beef, cheese, shrimp, crab, or even vegetables. The traditional sauces are made with either a spicy red chile sauce, a tomatillo sauce, or the Tex-Mex brown gravy chili sauce combination. Then just garnish for greatness! If you want to take your enchilada casserole to the next yummy level, give these homemade corn tortillas a try!

Eggs Mexican Casserole

August 15, 2017 by Jan D'Atri

The Story

Everyone should have a “Grandma Walker.” She’s the grandma that sweetened your visit with favorite treats, filled her kitchen with aromas that would waft through your lifetime, someone who shared her special old-time recipes with you and who inspired you to pass them along to others. My friend and “recipe pen-pal” Ruth Anne Greer of Scottsdale had a Grandma Walker, and because of her, my recipe box is one happy place!

Most days, you’ll find Ruth Anne smiling behind the counter at Switch Consignment on Scottsdale Road, north of Thunderbird, a fun new spot for home furnishings, gifts, and more. The day we went from chatting about bistro tables to what to serve on it was the day our delicious recipe exchange began (okay, it’s a one-way exchange – Ruth Anne shares her recipes and I race home to make them). We’re now having so much fun with her dishes, we’re leaving recipes at the front counter for customers! This week, I’m featuring Ruth Anne’s amazing Eggs Mexican Casserole, a perfect and simple meal for weeknights, Sunday brunch, or as a fabulous party dish.

I use fresh green chiles and a combination of cheddar and jack cheese. It’s out of this world!
