  1. This really hit the spot, DanzBaby. It turned out exactly as you said, rich, creamy and delicious. This will be a great dish to make when we are traveling and for our potluck dinners too. It's a keeper and I thank you for sharing it.
     
  2. I made these for dinner last night and my boyfriend said they were delicious. I left out the green chiles and had to use red enchilada sauce, because Scott won't eat green sauce, but when I make them to again, I will definitely try the green sauce. Easy to make and for sure a keeper. Thanks for sharing after 15 years.

I love to socialize. Saturday night is usually an impromptu dinner with friends and games. Recently, I went wine tasting and loved it. I was never much for wine, I always prefered a cocktail. I am enjoying teaching my palate to distinguish flavors and it has helped with my cooking. My knife skills are the worst. I need a class from Emeril. Thank GOD for the chopper!! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
