πŸ§€ The Secret to Perfect, No-Break Enchiladas (+ 7 Essential Enchilada Recipes!)


Hey there,

Enchiladas might be the most useful dinner I make. They're a Sunday dinner that turns into a week of lunches, a make-ahead when people are coming over, and about the easiest thing to carry to someone who needs a meal.

The no-break secret: fry each corn tortilla in hot oil for 10 to 15 seconds per side before you roll it. It makes them pliable, adds a toasty corn flavor, and keeps them from getting soggy in the sauce.

🌟 Recipe of the Week: Cheese Enchiladas Melty cheese wrapped in soft corn tortillas and smothered in rich homemade red sauce. Simple techniques for restaurant-quality enchiladas at home in just 45 minutes, including making the sauce!

  • Difficulty level: Easy
  • Perfect for: Meal prep, feeding a crowd, or stocking your freezer

Hey there, Over the years, I've posted a whopping 7 versions of piccata (the shrimp version is the one I make the most). What they all share is the sauce: butter, fresh lemon juice, capers. Almost everyone loves it, and it goes with just about anything savory. It always feels a little fancy, but it comes together very quickly. So I decided to develop a recipe for just the sauce. Now you can 'piccata' anything you want, from steamed vegetables to mashed potatoes to rice. 🌟 Recipe of the Week:...
