On cooking

Reasons I love cooking:

• An excuse to try new things. Last week's adventure: Apple Pie
• The chance to be creative
• Wearing cute aprons
  
• A sense of accomplishment in the cooking and even in the cleaning up
• Eating the results

Sundays are good cooking days. Today's menu: more apple pie, chicken enchiladas (recipe follows), and delicata squash.

Chicken Enchiladas

1 lb chicken in small pieces
1 chopped onion
2 Tb Olive Oil
2 cans Cream of Chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 can diced green chilies
2 cups Colby or cheddar cheese grated
1 pack flour tortillas (I end up using about 2-3 tortillas per level)

Sauté onion and chicken pieces in oil in fry pan
Stir in soup, sour cream, and chilies
Stack flour tortillas and cut into thin strips with knife
In 9 x 13 greased glass pan layer ½ tortillas, ½ chicken, ½ cheese and repeat
Bake 30 minutes @ 350 degrees
