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!

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:

have a wonderful time with mom so happy about hubby coming home... :)

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang...

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold. Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it. Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized. There's some question as to how well multivitamins...

      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about. Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis? Was your tTg IgA level very high? These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients. Are you eating...

      Basic metabolic panel results - more flags

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/
