I need a good enchilada recipe....anyone know one? I am thinking cheese, corn, black beans, chopped onion, rice, all rolled up in a corn tortilla, and then some salsa on the outside....but I don't know if you need to let it sit for a while so the corn tortilla gets soft (soaks up the juice) or what kinda salsa is good to use. Any advice? Thanks!

Good Morning..so glad to see your on line :):):):)

I don't have any answers to your questions but would love to know as I want to use up some of mine too.

Thanks Judy (me too :ph34r: ).

I will try the papertowel thingy, sounds good. I have some general ideas about ingredients, but just don't know about the details. I am SO not a cook. But my mom is flying in tomorrow for a week (to help me get ready for hubby coming home. I have soooooo much cleaning to do, and shopping, we are going to vegas, my husband, and I, for a week for our 4th anna!!)and I wanted to make my mom something yummy, but safe for me to eat. I await the good cooks' on here...... :unsure:

(about being up...yeah...went to be around 12:30 for maybe 2 hours...bad nightmare....been up since)

Here is 2 different ways that I make enchiladas:

First one is like a caserole:

Layer bottom of pan (sprayed with pam) with tortillas, rip some apart to cover whole bottom of 9x13

Next put layer of sauce

layer of meat

layer of cheese (I prefer velveeta)

top with another layer of tortillas

repeat layers until you are either out of room in pan or out of ingredients top with more cheese!! mmmm

then bake for maybe an hour or so at about 350 or 375 to melt all the cheese

2nd recipe:

pour a small amount of enchilada sauce into a 9x13 pan cover bottom of pan, but do not have tons of excess

get out a large plate pour some enchilada sauce onto the plate

dip tortilla into sauce coat both sides of tortilla, fill with meat and cheese roll and put into a 9x13 baking pan

continue this process until you have a full pan

pour remaining sauce over enchiladas and top with more cheese

bake at 350-375 until cheese is melted (maybe 30min or so)

I usually make my own enchilada sauce:

2 sm. cans tomato sauce (I use contadina)

Tablespoon oil

2 T. chili powder

1c water or chicken broth

1tsp garlic powder

2T corn starch

1C water

In a saucepan I put in the oil and chili powder. Keep stirring it because it will burn if you don't. This gets out the oils and flavors in the seasoning. THEN add in your water or broth. and bring to a boil. Disolve your cornstarch into the 2nd cup of water add this and also the garlic salt. Keep stirring and it will thicken.

Easy as can be to make!!

Enjoy your enchiladas!!

Enchiladas

3 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce

1 Tbsp chili powder

2 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp salt

16 ounce mild cheddar cheese, grated

12 corn tortillas

1/4 cup oil

Mix tomato sauce with seasonings. Pour 1 cup of sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Pour the rest of the sauce into a shallow bowl.

In a frying pan with hot oil, heat both sides of each tortilla to soften.

Take one tortilla. Dip both sides into the bowl of tomato sauce. Then set the tortilla on a plate. Fill the tortilla with 1/4 cup grated cheese, roll and place seam side down in the baking dish. Repeat procedure with the other tortillas.

Pour remaining sauce over rolled tortillas. Top with remaining 1 cup of grated cheese. Bake at 350 F for 15 to 20 minutes until cheese bubbles.

Makes 12 enchiladas.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beef or Bean Enchiladas:

Replace cheese filling with cooked shredded beef and/or refried beans.

But my mom is flying in tomorrow for a week (to help me get ready for hubby coming home. I have soooooo much cleaning to do, and shopping, we are going to vegas, my husband, and I, for a week for our 4th anna!!)

Well, well, well, truth be told.....DO YOU THINK THIS MIGHT BE ADDING TO YOUR STRESS AND ANXIETY :lol::blink::o:unsure:;):lol:

I'd be stressed to gills and boy when i get stressed and gt'n 'you all better watch out' even may cat avoids me... :lol:

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
