Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and 0.5 cup of cheese. Stir half the sauce into the chicken mixture. Add a little of the sauce mixture on the bottom of your 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Top with corn tortillas to cover the bottom, then add the chicken mixture and more tortillas. Top with remaining sauce and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven for about 25 minutes or until bubbly. Serves 6.

The original recipe calls for you to make individual enchiladas, but we enjoyed this the last time as an actual casserole. It was so good.

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe. I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years. My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods. So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie. It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese. I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years. You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much. I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!

S’mores Protein Bites Recipe You can find the original recipe here from Six Sisters' Stuff. The one below is the way I prepared it. Ingredients 1½ cups Simple Truth Old Fashioned Oats ¼ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup Simple Truth almond butter ½ cup raw honey ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Orgain Vanilla Protein Powder) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ cup mini marshmallows ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Instructions Combine all ingredients in a bowl or stand mixer until well combined. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet covered with foil or parchment paper. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month). This original recipe says 15 servings. I am not sure if I used a smaller scoop but I came out with 25 or so. There were a couple that were smaller.
