For the last few years.....I have assumed the kitchen duty at home.After all..if a feller had a good woman who cooked for him and his family for over 20 years..doncha think she deserves a break? Besides...the kitchen has become a brand new pallete..this is FUN! Recipes for baking...creativity for cooking.After ya learn the ingredients,cooking the sky is the limit.. I got past the notion to use 50 spices at once..keep it simple when creating a dish. I emailed a recipe for what we had for supper tonight to Ole Paint.......he likes veggie..I thought he would enjoy...this meal was so easy and so good,I want to share.. Try this recipe... i promise you will love it.
Tortilla wrappers...I gotta git me a tortilla press....... 2 c flour 1 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tbsp oil 3/4 c milk
mix above...add flavoring favorites....I used fine chopped spinach try jalepenos herbs etc knead for 2 -3 minutes rest the dough for 15 minutes
meanwhile stirfry your fave veggies.. I used 1 red pepper 1 yellow pepper 1 green pepper 1/2 a vidalia....I eat these like apples.....mmmmmmm lotsa mushrooms.. I added a few strips of chicken..you could easily omit meat and not loose much .I dont think you could put a wrong ingredient in here
Roll out tortillas..I used a ball of dough a lil bigger dan a gawf baw..
roll it thin..fry it(no oil) on a hot griddle or cast iron skillet till it bubbles a bit... then flip..dont cook too much or ya cant roll em cause they git brittle Lay out wrappers and add a nice mound of cooked veggies.......and sprinkle a lot of your favorite cheeses on ...then roll up and secure with a toofpick...... broil about 15 minutes..till browned..... while they broil...... mix up a dippin sauce...I use all fat free...ya dont have ta 1/4 pkge cream cheese 1/4 cup mayonnaise 3 tbsp sour cream 2 tbsp pesto...lotsa garlic....splash water to thin...whisk till sorta smooth...
I had a lil dish a homade "nuclear" salsa as a condiment too...
to accompany... a side of cottage cheese with chives sliced ,peeled fresh cucumbers with fresh ground pepper.... Good company deserves good food..and vice versa....
