Chilli cheese pie

When I don't feel like cooking I make this. All you do is cook some corn bread halfway. Take it out pour a can of chilli on top of it cover it with cheese and let if cook the rest of the way. I like to cook the cornbread almost all the way. but you just have to experiment.

Meatballs and Rice

One of my hubby's favorites are meatballs and rice and they are really easy

In a crockpot put frozen meatballs, heinz chili sauce, and some grape jelly. I also like to put crushed red peppers.

Then just make some rice.

Red Rice

My mom makes this all the time and my sister wrote the recipe down. This was also served at my wedding Reception.

Red Mexican Rice
1/4 cup oil
2 cups extra long grain rice
4 cups of water
1 tbsp of chicken bouillon
8 oz. tomato sauce
1 Jalapeno
1/2 small onion sliced in rings
can of corn, frozen peas (optional)
In a 3 qt pot, brown rice over medium heat with oil until it turns golden brown. Be sure to stir rice often so it doesn't burn. Add the water and bouillon and let it come to a boil. Stir in the tomato sauce, onion ring, corn, and Jalapeno, reduce heat to a simmer and put the lid on the pot. Let it cook until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is soft (usually 15 minutes). Uncover rice and fluff the rice with a spoon so it doesn't contine cooking

Chicken Enchiladas

This recipe was also a favorite among my friends at BYUI. I even had my mom make them for my wedding reception.

Chicken Enchiladas
Ingredients:
`2 lbs of chicken ( cooked and chopped or shredded)
1 lb of Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
2 cans of cream of mushroom ( 10 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 cup of milk
1 can of green chiles ( I like to use the small can)
1 chopped onion
1 can of olives (chopped)
18 corn tortillas
Sauce: combine soup, milk, green chile, onion, and olives in a pitcher. Mix well. Add salt and pepper to your taste.
Stir sauce during the stacking process often since the onions tend to fall to the bottom. This dish is made just like lasagna. In a 9 x 13 casserole dish pour a thin layer of the sauce then start stacking the layers of tortilla/sauce/meat/cheese then back to tortilla. Make sure you pour the sauce directly over the tortilla, otherwise your tortillas will end up stiff. ( My mom likes to softened the tortilla first in oil then to the stacking process)
About 6 tortillas will line a 9x 13 and you should end up with tortillas as your top layer. Pour remaining cheese and sauce on the top layer. Bake immediately (it will turn soggy If not baked soon after preparing) at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes or until bubbling and cheese is melted. Let it sit for about 15-20 minutes before serving.
I like to serve it with beans and red rice ( recipe to come soon)
I like to thank my sister for writing this recipe down
Grandma taught my mom and my mom taught us
