One of my goals for 2026 is to sort through all the recipes I have laying around tucked into folders and notebooks as well as my gigantic Pinterest/food blog collection that hasn't been touched in years. I've been having quite a good time with it. I enjoy cooking but it can become a chore pretty easily and this has made it a lot more fun for me as I feel like I'm working on a project. Around here we've taken to calling it Recipe Thunderdome as all recipes have to be auditioned before earning their place in the final recipe binder.
*For context I'm a reasonably capable home cook but one who is often trying to multitask and who is pretty much completely self-taught. *
Today I'm Sharing: Ranch Chicken Enchiladas from Life in the Lofthouse
Changes: I used fajita seasoning instead of taco seasoning just because I like the flavor a little bit better.
Thoughts on Recipe Difficulty: This was pretty easy and could be even easier if I prepped the meat ahead of time.
Cook Time: Active cooking maybe 20 minutes or so. Inactive about 3 1/2 hours or so.
Served With: Black beans
Results: This was really good! It comes together pretty quickly and made enough for a good amount of leftovers that reheated very well.
Verdict: Survived!
Ha! I am making enchiladas tonight so, good timing on this recipe. I have used chicken ebfore and now I usually keep it vegetarian and only use black beans and refried balck beans for the protein. This is a good one, Katherine.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have bought the Hoisin sauce and plan to make that chicken dish you posted July 2nd.
I can see your project turning into a new project of recipes for me to try! I really am enjoying this feature.
