Thai Chicken Enchiladas

24 Apr

I am not good at remembering, saving or making a meal I liked more than once. I constantly want to try new recipes or dishes, much to my husbands chagrin. This recipe changes things. I literally made it again the next day (which is the opposite of the extreme I was following, never making the same thing twice and now eating the same thing all week?! I have issues :) )

These are so surprisingly good. Nothing like a Mexican enchilada that can be heavy and laden with cheese (although my husband thought they could use guacamole, he is CRAZY). They are light and slightly spicy/sweet and PERFECT to whip up when you are having guests over with a side of edamame (Served restaurant style lightly salted in their pods)!

This recipe is from one of my favorite food blogs, How Sweet It Is, she is always coming up with great new recipe ideas! You MUST try this!

Green Onion and Dill Cream Cheese

23 Jun

I am definitely on a flavored cream cheese kick.  It’s just so easy and when it’s excruciatingly hot like its been here recently, it is hard to get motivated to have the hot stove and oven on.  So easy recipes like this one are welcomed in my home.

Green Onion and Dill Cream Cheese is a simple way to turn up the flavor on any sandwich, cracker or tortilla roll-up in my case.

And yes, the tortilla roll-up phenomena is NOT only for kids.  The roll-up has made several appearances in my household over the last couple years.  Even more so recently when I had this cream cheese hanging out in the fridge.

Do this, your kids/husband/boyfriend/you/whoever graces your kitchen will love it.

Green Onion and Dill Cream Cheese

Ingredients:

8 ounces whipped cream cheese

4 green onions (green parts only), finely chopped

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh dill, finely chopped (I had dill leftover from this)

4 dashes Worcestershire sauce

Instructions:

1.   In a medium bowl, place all ingredients.  Stir to combine.  Store in the refrigerator.

This is very hard to mess up ;)

Now make a tortilla roll-up.

Spread the deliciousness on to a tortilla.

I had some extra bacon from breakfast, so I added it.

Then add other toppings as you wish.  I added turkey and lettuce.  This is a GREAT time to sneak in some spinach.

Then, starting at one side, slowly and tightly roll up the tortilla.  This took me a couple roll-ups to get the technique exactly right. Practice makes perfect.  Then slice the tortilla log into 3/4 inch sections.

Yum!  This is the perfect finger food.
