Meatless Enchilada Casserole

1 can of black beans (but can use other if you prefer)
1 can of diced tomatoes (I use the ones that have like garlic/basil, or you can do the fire roasted ones for extra kick)
1 can of corn
2 T lime juice
cilantro
6 tortillas
2 - 3 cups cheese
8x8 or 9x9 casserole dish

Drain all three canned items. Then mix together in a bowl with lime juice and a bit of chopped cilantro. Cut all tortillas in half and line the bottom of the casserole dish with 2 tortillas, having cut edges on the edge of the dish. Spoon in half of the mixture over tortillas and cover with cheese. Layer tortillas again, then mixture, cheese. Last add a final layer of tortillas covered with cheese. Make sure you use a generous amount of cheese on the top layer so the tortillas don't get too crispy. Can top with sour cream. Is yummy with spanish rice.

Bake for 20 minutes at 350°.
serves 6-8

For spanish rice, I just make it really simple. Make regular white rice and add in about ½ to 1 cup of salsa and mix thoroughly.

We've had this many times during the past year (including tonight!) and it's a favorite of Trev's still! He says he could eat the whole pan no problem. ☺
Thanks again for posting it!

Easy Donuts

Joe introduced me to these, and Paula Deen has a recipe for them on Food Network . So I am jumping to the conclusion that they are popular in the South... :) Here's how we made ours. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat. You want to heat to about 350 degrees, so we used a candy thermometer to monitor the temp. Prepare the toppings. Note - For the toppings, we didn't actually measure any of the ingredients, just eyeballed it. But this is about how much we used. Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside.

Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I got this recipe from my mom, who got it from her sister, who got it from...I'm not sure who, but I tried it and Mike and I liked it. It is not an exact replica of PF Changs infamous Lettuce Wraps, but it is similar. Brown chicken (the recipe calls for 2-3 chicken breasts - I used 2) in skillet. Remove and set aside and then either shred or cut into small chunks. Pour 2 T canola or olive oil into skillet and add 1 T grated or minced fresh ginger root and some rice straws, if desired. I used my kitchen shears to cut a bunch off. Rice straws have to be softened in the oil. Cook about 4-5 minutes. Then add back in the chicken you have either shredded or cut. Continue cooking while adding vegetables. I added shredded carrots, broccoli cut into small pieces, water chestnuts cut into quarters, Italian green beans cut into small pieces (slender whole beans cut up would work), red pepper, green onion (or use onion powder), baby corn cobs cut into 2 or 3 slices, and whatever else you would
