I haven't been doing much cooking lately. It's been so warm and we have to keep the house so hot for the hubby's grandma so I just don't feel like cooking much. The other night I was craving some great Mexican good but we didn't want to eat out again. I was planning on making soft tacos but realized the tortillas were bad, so I went scrounging thru the freezer, fridge and cupboards since I was too lazy to drive the 2 miles to the store. I pulled together an enchilada casserole that was AWESOME! I served it with Spanish rice and our meal was complete! It was an ooey gooey cheesy madness!
