Nacho bean enchiladas

This is a fridge find recipe.  You may not have to go shopping if you get creative about what you have left in your fridge.

I found the following which makes up this recipe:

refried beans, left over
mozzarella cheese ( don't be afraid to use a typical Italian cheese.  Mozzarella is a mild cheese and works well with Mexican recipes.)
salsa
nacho cheese
tortillas

Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Use cooking spray or grape seed oil to grease the pan. Fill the tortillas with all ingredients and fold. Place tortillas overlapping in glass or metal pan.  Use any left over salsa, mozzarella, and nacho cheese to top.
Bake 20-30 min or until browned on top.

For additional flavor roast corn in butter in a pan until golden brown and top along with cream cheese or sour cream.

Seafood Chowder

 
Can purchase at Woodman's
grape seed oil
salt, pepper
bay leaves
celery
onion
fresh garlic
chicken bullion
noodles or potatoes
butter
milk
package of  frozen seafood medley
a few filets of tilapia fish

Sautee celery and onion in grape seed oil.  After celery and onion are browned, mince or use a grinder to add fresh garlic.  Measurements are approximate.  1 med onion, 3-5 stalks celery, 2-3 garlic cloves.

Fill a large pot filled with water and 3-4 tablespoons of chicken bullion. You can substitute with liquid bullion if you prefer (water not needed if you choose this method).

Boil for 40-60 in-if using potatoes, add right away, if noodles add after it has boiled for about a half hour so they do not overcook.  Next add frozen seafood ,salt, pepper, bay leaves and boil for another 20 min.  Add tilapia last and cook for 10 min if fresh, if frozen you can add along with the other seafood.

Add milk and butter ( about 2-3 cups milk and 1/4 cup butter and bring to another boil for 10 min and then simmer.

Add salt pepper and bay leaves for flavor.

This is not a thick seafood chowder just creamy and full of seafood flavor.  I am not a measurer so do your best and taste as you go.
