Chicken Enchilladas

Last night I tried a recipe and the boys loved it. It only took 15 mins to prepare (minus the pre-cooked chicken breast) and 15 mins in the oven. We served with lots of green salad.

10 Flour tortillas
3 cups cooked chicken (I used breast which was boiled and chopped)
1/2 cup corn kernells
1 carton (300ml) light sour cream
taco seasoning (1/2 packet)
1 cup light tasty cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
mushrooms (optional)
Jar of pasta sauce


I mixed the cooked chicken with the sour cream, corn, taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup tasty cheese. Spoon mixture into tortilla (adding mushrooms if desired) and wrap, placing in a glass dish. Repeat until mixture has been divided between all 10 tortillas. Cover wrapped tortillas with pasta sauce and sprinkle with remaining cheeses. Bake in a moderate oven until cheese has melted and the tortillas have warmed through.

What is there to eat?

Every mother has heard the words, "What's to eat?" and felt frustration in trying to keep hungry tummies fed.
In my experience kids eat for several reasons; the obvious being they really are hungry; the second being they are in the right place at the right time and something looks tasty; finally they eat because they are bored and need something to do.

When hunger is the real issue, we mothers must produce tasty morsels to feed our hungry offspring. My husband is easy. His motto is, "I don't care what it is, as long as there is plenty of it!"
However, I for one, and the kids for two, three, four and five get sick of the same food over and over. So...I will start posting some of the recipes that have been winners in our home and hope they are useful to some of you.
