Simple, Perfect Enchiladas

Yes, it's Pioneer Woman again. However, I did the recipe some time ago. Steve helped me which made this recipe much easier. It can be done alone, but a couple of extra hands does make the job go a little faster.

My family loved them and wants me do it again soon. It is time consuming and without help, I don't know that would do this on a weeknight again. I think next time I make them, I will double the batch and put a tray in the freezer. It wouldn't be that much more work. That would make for a fast weeknight dinner.

Have a good evening and give this a try. It's worth it.

Pot Roast is what's for dinner

Here is the first installment of my reviews of "The Pioneer Woman Cooks." I sort of feel like the movie "Julie and Julia." I plan to work my way through most of the Pioneer Woman's recipes in the cookbook. Since I have followed her blog for awhile now, I have had a head start. I didn't bother taking any pictures, but I am including the links to her blog.

She not only has this on her blog and in her cookbook but she demo'd it on Good Morning America a couple of weeks ago. When I saw her put her hand in the pot to flip the roast I thought this is my kind of cooking. It was fast, easy and turned out wonderful. Most important, the kids loved it.

I ended up getting a 5 lb chuck roast on sale for around $8. It was enough for 2 dinners and a lunch for Steve. You do the math, this was a great deal.

Go get her book or check out her blog. This is definitely a do again recipe.
