Easy Enchiladas

Recently my 10 year old daughter has shown an interest in cooking and baking. Wouldn't you know, she is actually good at it!!!! As many already know, she is home-schooled. Part of her homeschooling requires her to be able to read and follow directions. This has really helped when it comes to following a recipe. She has taken it upon herself to look up recipes on the internet and start cooking. She even has gone as far as found substitutes for things if it wasn't in our cupboard.

A few weeks ago she asked friends and family to send her recipes so she can start her own cook book. She has received a wonderful response.

Last night she made Easy Enchiladas given to her from Aunt Susie (Thank you!) They were awesome!

Easy Enchiladas

 Brown 2lbs of ground beef (or deer in our case) and 1 onion (chopped)

Add to this 1 can of refried beans and 1 large jar of picante sauce.
Simmer for approx 5 minutes.

Fill taco shells with burger mixture, roll sides and place in greased 9x13 pan. Bake for 10-20 minutes at 350 degrees. Take out and top with shredded cheese. Bake until cheese is melted.
Serve with chopped onion, black olives, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream.




Feel free to send us recipes to add to her cook book!

Slow Cooker Taco Chili

My church had a Chili Cook Off last night to kick off this year’s family night. It was a runner up for most popular vote. I would have won if Zoey wouldn’t have mysteriously come up with 3 extra votes when it came to announce the winner. Ha Ha! All the chili was very yummy last night and I had to taste all 8 entries. Needless to say, I was soooo uncomfortable afterwards. It was fun! All my co-workers appreciated it too as I took what was left over to feed them the next day. I put together all the ingredients the night before and put it in the crock pot over night. In the morning before leaving to work I took it out of the fridge and put the crock pot on low for the day. Super easy and it is nice to get home from work to already have supper done. Slow Cooker Taco Chili Ingredients 1 pound ground beef (or ground venison) 1 pound bulk pork sausage 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes 1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn with red and green bell peppers ...
