Zapped Cobbler

I don't like turning on our oven when it is 100 degrees outside, so I thought cobbler made in the microwave sounded more appealing (and quick). It is a great treat with some ingredients that would trick you into thinking it's healthy!

It really is as easy as putting these ingredients together in a microwavable bowl:
20 oz. can of peaches (including all the juice/syrup)
1 cup quick oats
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon

Mix well and microwave for about 4 minutes on high. It should be bubbling around the edges. Mix and microwave for about 1-2 minutes more or until it is bubbly, thickened and heated through. Let it cool a bit and enjoy warm. Serves about 6 people.

NOTE: You may need to adjust the amount of brown sugar you add depending on if your canned peaches are in 100% juice, light syrup or heavy syrup. Mine were in 100% juice.

Serving this with soy or rice vanilla ice cream or cool whip would be tasty too.

Layered Enchiladas a Little Different

I made these delicious enchiladas using this  recipe for the sauce. I made a lot of the enchilada sauce mix and it's so easy to throw it together for a meal that way (Scroll down for the sauce mix recipe and instruction).  Enchilada topped with fresh Pico de Gallo. I added an unusual ingredient to these enchiladas, green cabbage, chopped small. It gave them added moisture (since the cheese is lacking and can't accomplish that) and nutrition and honestly, none of us could taste it in there, even though I put like half a head. In the bowl of chopped ingredients: grilled chicken, cut bite-sized Cabbage cut small Black and Pinto Beans Finely chopped red bell pepper. Coarsely chopped cilantro Garlic Salt Boiling Enchilada Sauce Coating tortillas and layering ingredients. You can make the sauce each time you make enchiladas using THIS RECIPE , or you can make some dry sauce mix in advance to help dinner preparation be more speedy. ...

Mexican Style Rice

I always think it's funny when I discover how easy it is to make some things from scratch. Especially the things that I have depended on Rice A Roni for all these years. One such example, is Mexican or Spanish Rice. I have always used the box rice mixes to make these, until a wise woman taught me otherwise. So, here's how I make it now. In a sauce pan, combine and brown over medium/high heat for about 4-6 minutes: 1 cup white rice 1 Tbsp olive oil 1/4 onion, diced 1-2 stalks celery, cut small Add water and one can of diced tomatoes (with liquid) to equal 2 1/2 cups liquid total. Add any seasonings if desired (garlic, salt, red pepper, chili powder). Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes or until all moisture is absorbed. Stir and Serve. I'm aware that this photo below is NOT dairy free, but I thought it looked so visually appealing, I couldn't help putting it on here.
