What are some of your favorite recipes?

Take a large bread pan spay with cooking spray.

Layer pan with Prosciutto, Mozzarella, Chicken-breast, Spinach leaves-(must be fresh), dried tomatoes.

Arrange in any way you desire. Just make sure the cheese is not on tthe bottom or it will burn.

Place a Brick, double layered in heavy-duty tin-foil, on top and leave in the frig over night.

Preheat oven to 450-F Later remove brick of course, top with bread crumbs (food not the brick) (sour dough works best).

Cook for 35 minutes, of until crumbs are golden brown and cheese is bubbley.

Let sit until the pan is able to be handled, flip over to remove, cut into bread thick slices and serve while still warn.

Best served alongside light soup/bread sticks and good friends.

It had beef, corn tortillias, onions&peppers, and cream of mushroom soup. (I remember i always thought eww when she put the mushroom soup in) I have no idea what else was in this recipe or how to cook it or anything else but it was so delicious. Sadly I can’t ask her what was in it, but I was wondering if any of you awesome ladies out there have any idea. I don’t know if she made it up herself (she was an awesome cook) or if its a real recipe out there somewhere. Any input would be so much appriciated. Haven’t had it since I was a little girl and it started sounding good the other day, still remember exactly what it tasted like! Thanks so much for your time.
So sorry I should have said awesome people not just ladies

Place pieces of tortillas in greased 13×9x2" casserole dish. Layer meat, soup, pimentos, green chilies and remainder of Velveeta (combined with Mozzarella) ending up with last layer being cheese.

Cook in oven at 350 degrees

PINTO BEAN ENFRIJOLADAS
Enfrijoladas are a popular breakfast dish in Mexico.
Servings: Makes 6 to 8 servings.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups chopped onions
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 15- to 16-ounce cans pinto beans, drained
1 1/2 cups (or more) whole milk
1 1/2 cups (or more) water
1 teaspoon minced serrano chile with seeds
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
12 5 1/2- to 6-inch-diameter corn tortillas
2 1/4 cups crumbled queso ranchero*
Chopped fresh cilantro
Sour cream
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F. Oil 13×9x2-inch glass baking dish. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onions are golden, about 8 minutes. Add beans, 1 1/2 cups milk, and 1 1/2 cups water; simmer until onions are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Mash beans coarsely in skillet. Mix in chile and all spices; season with salt and pepper. Add more milk or water by 1/4 cupfuls to thin bean mixture to slightly soupy consistency.
Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tortilla at a time; cook until tortilla softens, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer tortilla to work surface. Place 1 heaping tablespoon cheese in center of each tortilla; fold in half. Place in prepared dish, overlapping tortillas slightly. Top with bean sauce.
Bake until enfrijoladas are heated through and sauce is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining queso ranchero and cilantro. Serve with sour cream.
*Mildly salty cheese that crumbles easily; also labled queso fresco or queso casero. Queso cotija or mild feta can be used instead.

I like mexican, italian and good old fashioned meat and potatoes.

I’m using a recipe from the Betty Crocker Casserole recipe book. The recipe calls for Spanish rice to be added in the casserole. This is what it says: "Spoon and spread Spanish rice over tortillas" but no where in the recipe does it say to cook the rice. I know in some casseroles you put dry rice in and it’ll cook itself in the oven, but I’m not sure if that’s the case here. Will the rice cook on it’s own or should I cook it FIRST then put it in? The other ingredients are ground beef mixed with salsa. So would that help cook the rice? I’m lost here…can someone help…QUICK?!?! I’m in the middle of cooking it now.

Please, serious answers only, don’t be an idiot and write something stupid just so you can get "points" that don’t mean anything!

Thanks!!

It sounds like your recipe is sort of assembly instructions. You want to cook your rice and your meat prior to layering over the tortillas. Otherwise the length of time required to cook the rice and meat will cause your tortillas to turn into mush.

I want to make one instead of the usual tacos that are planned.

Well I like to make Chili Pie

This works with any kind of baking dish , if you have a wider baking dish then just use two tortilla’s side by side for each layer instead of one.
Preheat oven to 400 F
Lay down flour Tortilla(s) in a sprayed baking dish or pie tin.
Spread chili on top of the tortilla(s) about a half inch thick.
Add a layer of shredded cheese just enough to cover the chili.
Add another layer of tortilla(s)and keep repeating layers until you reach top , covering the last layer with tortilla(s)
OPTIONAL: Add onions and cilantro to each chili-cheese layer and if you like spice throw some sliced jalapeno’s on there as well.
Put it in the oven and bake for 12- 18 minutes … until the dish is hot , cheese is melted and the tortilla(s) on top are kind of crispy

This dish is super fast to make and is pure cheesy goodness

hope you enjoy =)
