Sarah's Creamy Veggie Enchiladas
These enchiladas are full of fresh vegetables and my ace in the hole - cotija cheese. Sour cream makes a nice saucy filling. My vegetarian husband gives these 5 stars; I hope you like them, too! These go great with a side of black or pinto beans and a salad with chopped tomato and avocado. Enjoy!
Salmon en Croûte
Salmon en croûte is a deliciously tender salmon fillet wrapped in golden puff pastry with a spinach and mushroom filling. I like to serve it with a lemon-mustard sauce and a side of asparagus for an impressive French-inspired meal.
Pepper Jack Cornbread Biscuits
Buttery layered biscuits with a slight taste of cornbread and a subtle spice of pepper Jack cheese. These are perfect to go along with a soup or stew.
