Who made up the term "lazy days of summer"? Seriously? Did they have kids? AH! My days have been anything but lazy around here. Whew...only how many days until Fall? Just kidding...kinda.
My cooking/baking schedule is also a bit screwy around here. So, getting new dishes or old dishes cooked up seems to be a thing on the fly. And computer time? Forget it. I am thinking of posting a sign up sheet for it. (Mph...not a bad idea?)
I did manage to whip a new recipe last though. It is quite tasty and can be spiced up or spiced down, depending on your taste. Chicken.Cheese.Corn Bread. Lots of good stuff.
It has the great taste of a chicken tamale/enchilada without the huge task of making them.
{A few notes of mine}
You can also add cream corn(14.75oz can) to the corn bread base, I omitted it on ours. Also, if you need to 'spice down' your enchilada sauce, add a bit of sour cream to the sauce. You still have the great enchilada sauce taste without the bite.
