Chile Relleno Casserole


I am a huge fan of Chile Relleno. Every time were out for Mexican food I will always get it. Mmmmm. My mom made this casserole growing up which is where I got my love for this tasty dish. There isn't much too it and I am still trying to find a sauce for the top of it that I might think could be better but for now, this will do!

Here's what you need:

3 Cans whole green chiles (slice down the middle)
1 Can Evaporated Milk
1 Small block of grated Jack Cheese (or Cheddar)
3 Beaten Eggs
1 Tsp. Flour
Salt and Pepper

1 Jar of Pasta Sauce (Prego)
1 Jar of Pace Picante Salsa

Preheat oven to 350. Lay chiles on bottom of 13x9 pan. Combine Milk, Eggs, Cheese, and flour and pour over top of chiles. (Sometimes I add another can of diced green Chiles in the batter). Bake for 30 minutes. Once the time is up, combine Pasta Sauce and Salsa in bowl, use just HALF of each jar. It can be too saucy. Pour on top of dish and bake for another 15-20 minutes.

The Baguettewich

You know how I love Fresh and Easy? Maybe cause it's amazing and you can get everything there. We swim at a girls house I work with every day and today her awesome husband made us Sandwiches. He said he got all the stuff to Fresh and Easy so off I went right after work! They were so yummy I had to come home and make it for dinner!! What you need:

1 French Baguette
Butter
Italian Seasoning
1 Sliced Yellow Onion
Deli Honey Ham
Deli Smoked Turkey
Your favorite Cheese
Light Mayo
Toppings of your choice: Avacado, Tomato, Lettuce, etc.

First: Caramelize your Onion in Lots O' butter.
Second: Cut your baguette right in half
Third: Spread lightly with butter and add a few sprinkles of Italian Seasonings (I just used what I have in my spice rack).
Toast that sucker on Broil.
Fourth: Top on your meats and cheese. Take away your top half of the baguette and toast just the bottom half until the cheese is all melty and delicious.
Fifth: Toss on your caramelized onions. Mmm mmm mmm.
Add some light Mayo (If you prefer, I do :]) and add whichever other fill ins you like.
Devour and Enjoy!!
Bon Appetit!

F & E Chicken Pesto Pizza

On my way home from work the other day I was CRAVING something with Pesto. Then I remembered Oregano's to die for Pesto Pizza. So, I stopped by Fresh and Easy and picked up every ingredient from there.

1 Pack Fresh and Easy Pizza Dough
1 Little pack of Pesto Sauce
Cooked Chicken (I bought some in a pack at F & E too)
1 Roma Tomatoes
Mozzarella Cheese

Preheat oven to 375. Lay out pizza dough on the bottom of a cookie sheet nice and flat. Spread on your Pesto sauce, next shred up your chicken, lay down the cheese, top with sliced tomatoes and sprinkle with some parmesan cheese! So simple, yet so delicious!



Bon Appetit!

Creamy Salsa Chicken {E}


So I needed something quick to whip up tonight for dinner since I have scouts in 30 minutes so at lunch today I threw some chicken in the crock pot, added a can of black beans and a jar of pace picante, set it on low and ran out the door. When I parked in my garage when returning home, oh my delicious. It smelled so good. Here is the super easy recipe! And we LOVED it. :]

3 Chicken Breasts
1 Can Black Beans
1 Jar of Pace Picante
1 Can of Corn (optional)
2 Tsp. Cumin
1 Pack of Cream Cheese
1/4 C. Shredded Jack Cheese

Cooked Rice

Combine Chicken, beans, and corn in Crockpot and set on low for 3-4 hours. Then plop that pack of cream cheese right on top and let sit for another 10 minutes then shred the chicken. Stir all together, add the cumin, some S&P and the shredded cheese. Serve over cooked rice. Enjoy!
