This is what we eat for dinner How about you??

Chicken Enchiladas

Sauce:
1 1/2 cups chopped onion
2 cloves garlic minced
1 green capsicum chopped
3 tsp mexican chilli powder
2 420g cans chopped tomatoes
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt

Filling:
2 cups cooked chicken, chopped
3 tsp Mexican chili powder
500g shredded cheese
12 flour tortillas

Bring all sauce ingredients to a boil, then simmer for 30 mins. Put chicken and chili powder in a bowl and mix together. Spread a handful of chicken mixture, and cheese on each tortilla and roll up. Lay the enchiladas in a lightly greased pan. Cover them with sauce mixture, then sprinkle remaining cheese over the top. Top off with chopped spring onions. Bake in a 175 degree C oven for about one hour.

My husband is somewhat a Mexican food specialist!! considering he is half Mexican and from Arizona... Anyway for the first little while of our marriage he would make enchiladas from the old elpaso packets. And i really didn't like it Sorry dear, I kept telling him that i have a recipe (Aunty Jans) that is from scratch and is really nice. Now im not allowed to make anything else : )
