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:

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/

      Hi, @Ginger38, I've had shingles in the past.  I understand how miserable you're feeling.   Not only do i have the chickenpox virus lurking about, I also have the cold sore virus that occasionally flares with a huge cold sore on my lip when stressed or exposed to gluten.  The virus lives dormant in the nerves on the left side of my face.  It causes Bell's Palsy (resulting in drooling).  The cold sore virus is also in my eye.  My eye swells up and my vision is diminished permanently whenever I have a flare, so it's of the utmost importance to keep flares away and treat them immediately if they do happen so I don't lose any more vision.   I take the amino acid supplement L-Lysine.  Lysine messes with the replication of viruses, which helps the body fight them off.   I haven't had an outbreak for several years until this year when exceptionally stressed and contaminated, it flared up again. Lysine has been shown to be beneficial in suppression of viruses like the cold sore virus (a herpetic virus), the chickenpox virus (also a herpetic virus), as well as the HIV virus, and even the Covid virus.   I also take additional Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) because Thiamine has antiviral properties as well.   For pain, a combination of Thiamine (like TTFD or Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride), with B12 Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine B6 have been shown to have analgesic properties which relieve pain and neuropathy.    The combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 really does work to relieve pain.  I take it for back pain from crushed vertebrae in my back.  This combination also works on other pain and neuropathy.   I usually buy a supplement that combines all three and also Riboflavin B2 called EXPLUS online.  However, it's made in Japan and the price with the tariffs added makes it really expensive now.  But the combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and B12 Cobalamine (and Riboflavin B2) still work even if taken separately.   I can't take Tylenol or ibuprofen because of stomach upsets.  But I can take the vitamin combination without side effects.  However, you can take the three vitamins at the same time as other pain relievers for added benefit.  The vitamins help other pain relievers work better. I hope you will try it.  Hopeful you'll feel better quickly.

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.
