Carne Asada Tacos
We loved these! I added the cooked meat to the sauce--one less dish. Try shredded green and red cabbage, shredded carrots, onions for garnish. The shredded cabbage/carrots really add a lot of crunch. Tomato and avacado were served on the side. This is the first "Mexican" meal I've served without some type of cheese which has always been compulsory. I did not miss the cheese and didn't even think about it until clean up! Hint: white corn totillas + Pam + 350 oven = easy!

No Bake Peach Pie
If you prefer eating a fresh peach opposed to a cooked peach this is the recipe for you. I can't imagine ever cooking the peaches again or using a canned peach. After mixing the sugar/cornstarch together simply add the butter and water at same time and begin cooking. I also add 1 tsp. almond extract after cooking the glaze. If you soak the peaches in lemon-line soda which is a nifty idea/trick and it does keep the peaches from going brown, be sure to drain the peaches well or the pie will not set up properly. I prefer using a pie crust rather then graham cracker but both are good. It's easy, fast, and super delicious.

Authentic Enchiladas Verdes
Some modifications: To make the enchiladas: spray both sides of the tortillas lightly with Olive Oil and lay them on a cookie sheet in stacks of two. Heat them in a 350°F oven just until they're soft and pliable, about 3 minutes. Turn off oven, leave cookie sheet in and pick one tortilla at a time to fill. All tortillas will remain pliable for stuffing. FOR THE FILLING: In a large bowl, I combine the chicken, shredded cheddar and Pepper Jack cheese, chopped onion, salt, AND ADD 1/2 cup of the sauce to the chicken mixture and toss to combine. I also add some whipping cream to the sauce before filling the tortillas I place them in a 9 x 13 baking dish as I fill them, then pour remaining sauce over and top with queso frisco and more cheddar and jack cheese. Bake 20-25 minutes or until warm through and sauce is bubbly.
