Kari Laine "Domestic" Ensign

Yes. That is my new name. It may be long, but it is certainly accurate. Let me explain myself.

First of all. I think that I was put on this earth to be a homemaker. Some of you (especially males) may be thinking, "Isn't that what all women were put on this earth for?" Yes. But not quite with the skill-set that I have.

First of all, our house is SUPER cute and Christmas-itized. Christmas tree and all. Thanks to yours truly.


Secondly, I have discovered how to make a fabulously delicious Beef and Cheese Enchilada Casserole that I occasionally like to feed to other people. What? You'd like the recipe? Ok. If you insist. It's REALLY easy.

All you need is:

1 lb. lean ground beef
2 cans (10 oz. each) of red enchilada sauce (I would buy a little more than this. With only 20 oz. it can get a little dry.)
7 oz. of chopped green chiles
24 small corn tortillas (I use white but the recipe calls for yellow)
3 c. of shredded cheese

1. Heat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a glass casserole dish (I use my 9x11 Pyrex).
2. Brown the beef. Then add in one 10 oz. can of enchilada sauce and the green chiles. Stir it up.
3. Pour half of the other can of enchilada sauce to cover the bottom of the casserole dish. Then place 8 tortillas over the sauce. On top of the tortillas, pour half of the meat mixture and cover with some cheese. Repeat the tortilla, meat, cheese layer one more time. On top of the second layer, put 8 more tortillas. Then pour the remaining enchilada sauce on top.
4. Cover it with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes. Or until it's bubbling around the edges.
5. Take it out and sprinkle some more cheese to cover the top. Stick it back in for another 5 minutes or so.

Then just serve it with some sour cream and eat it up. It is seriously so easy and it tastes delicious. And I always have PLENTY left over.

Like I said guys. I'm domestic.
