Taco Burgers

August 30, 2020 mamasheenasLeave a comment

You’ll need:

1 1-2 lbs hamburger

1 packet taco seasoning

1/2 yellow onion diced small

1 red bell pepper

1 jalapeño

1/2 red onion

1 bunch cilantro

1 tbsp lime juice

6 slices habanero cheese

1 avocado

Directions:

Place burger into bowl and add in half a diced yellow onion and taco seasoning. Mix well then patties into 6 burgers. Place into a medium high grill and grill until done to your liking. We like ours a little pink so we do about 5 minutes per side. Then we add cheese and set onto plate. You should also slice half of the red pepper in thick slices width wise and slice onion strips with the other half of the yellow onion. Drizzle them with olive oil and place into the grill when you start the burgers. I like to add in jalapeños 4 sliced lengthwise and grill those also but you will get lots of heat! But we like it that way! While burgers and veggies are cooking dice your half a red onion, the jalapeño, half the red pepper into small pieces and chop cilantro. Place into a bowl and then add the lime juice and season with salt to taste. Slice the avocado so it’s ready to top.

To assemble: place burger onto a bun or into a flour tortilla (we throw them on the grill to crisp and heat just for a few minutes) then add the roasted red peppers and onion, the PICO we made and then the avocado! Then enjoy!!!!

Crack chicken enchiladas

May 25, 2020 mamasheenasLeave a comment

You’ll need:
4 boneless chicken breast
4 slices bacon crumbled or bought real bacon pieces
1 pack dry ranch dressing packet
1 8 oz pack cream cheese
1/2 cup Colby jack cheese shredded
(To do this as a separate meal you can check crack pot chicken sandwiches)

Add to leftover chicken:
3 corn on the cob ears (grilled)
1 lb grated cheese your choice
16 corn tortillas
1- 28 oz can green enchilada sauce

Okay so you can make the shredded chicken with the cream cheese, cheese, ranch and bacon with half the cheese within the week prior. Just cook chicken and shred. Then add in the cream cheese, ranch packet, the chicken stock from cooking the chicken, and bacon bites and mix. Heat until all melted together and serve in buns for a yummy sandwich.
We had corn on the cob this week also so had left overs we had made on the grill and charred. So I just shaved off the kernels and added to the left over chicken mix.
To assemble chicken enchiladas just take your leftover crack chicken and shaved corn and throw together. Heat in microwave so it is soft. Heat oven to 350. In a 9 by 13 inch pan pour a small amount of the green enchilada sauce then place 5-6 tortillas on the bottom of the pan, add a layer of the chicken and corn mix and then a little more of the green sauce, with a thin layer of shredded cheese. Repeat this until you have 3 layers leaving the meat, sauce and cheese layer on top. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes until top of cheese is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling On sides. Top with cilantro, avocado, sour cream and salsa if you would like!
