Turkey Enchiladas (but with Chicken this time)

I make this dish with one of the roasted salsa verde recipe suggested by Rick Bayless, and I may toss in whatever is in the fridge that goes well with enchiladas -- here, you see some cherry tomatoes that blistered nicely in the oven.

This is a nice dish to use up rotisserie chicken, or, leftover turkey breast.


Turkey Enchiladas
Gimme Some Oven

 

2 c salsa verde
2 avocados, pitted, dicedd
1/2 red onion, diced
8 flour tortillas
3 c turkey or chicken, cooked
3 c Mexican cheese, shredded
1 14 oz can Great Northern beans
1/2 c cilantro, chopped

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Spray a large 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.  Then spread ⅓ cup salsa verde evenly along the bottom of the dish.  Set aside.

Set aside 1 cup of the shredded cheese, 1 avocado, and ½ cup red onion for later use.

Lay a flour tortilla out a workspace.  Spread 2 tablespoons salsa verde all over the surface of the tortilla.  Then in a line down the center, layer about a handful of avocado, red onion, turkey, cheese and beans.  (Portion each ingredient so that you use about ⅛ of the entire portion per enchilada, since there are 8 total.)  Fold the tortilla over to seal it, then transfer the enchilada to the pan.  Repeat with the remaining tortillas until all 8 enchiladas are in the pan.  You may need to squish them together a bit to make room.

Spread the remaining salsa verde on top of the enchiladas.  Then sprinkle the reserved 1 cup shredded cheese evenly on top. Bake for 20 minutes.

Remove, and sprinkle the enchiladas evenly with the reserved avocado, red onion, and the fresh cilantro leaves.  Serve immediately.

Cauliflower and Arugula Soup with Tibetan Flatbread

Because the weather is chilly, and because I had a bag of arugula from the last farm box taunting me, only to be compounded by a fresh bag of arugula from the recent farm box, I decided to try this soup I found from a blog associated with a California-based CSA, Eat Outside the Box . Cauliflower and Arugula Soup Eat Outside the Box farm blog 1 head cauliflower 1 red or white onion, peeled and chopped 3/4 lb zucchini, peeled and chopped 1/4 lb arugula 15 oz stock 15 oz water 1 T olive oil salt and pepper Parmesan cheese, grated First, let me state how important it is to wash your arugula before using it. I don't know about you, but sometimes I get lazy and rely on the "well, if it doesn't kill me, it'll just make me stronger" approach to washing my foods and vegetables. This laziness is only enhanced when the food I'm considering has come from an organic farm. But leaving aside all the various things that can get on the food

Mayocoba Beans with Green Chiles

I love this dish so much that I can barely stand it. Delicious the night it was made, and fantastic as leftovers throughout the week. Mayocoba beans are easily replaced -- try pintos, if you can't find mayocobas. Mayocoba Beans with Green Chiles Baptism of Fire 3-4 green chiles, roasted and chopped 1 onion, chopped 1 clove garlic, minced 1 T lard or olive oil 1/2 tsp oregano 1 tsp cumin pepper 1 c mayocoba beans, dry 3 c water 1 tsp salt Cook the green chiles, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, and black pepper in the fat until the onions begin to caramelize. Add the water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and let the beans sit, uncovered, for an hour. You may drain the water to remove some of the slightly indigestible sugars that cause gassiness. If you decide to drain them, add enough water back into the pot to cover the beans with about 2" of water above the beans for cooking.  Bring the beans back to a boil and cook, until tender. This will take

Chilled Soba Noodles with Cucumber, Snow Peas, and Radishes

  We destroyed these. In a good way. It's a lovely-to-look-at dish, chock full of vegetables. More so than I had anticipated, and more so than most soba noodle dishes I've made in the past. We absolutely gobbled this up! Served here with a five-spice chicken and smashed cucumbers.  The original calls for nori. We don't love nori so left it out. Maybe we are missing a part of the experience, but even without it, this was delicious.  Chilled Soba Noodles with Cucumber, Snow Peas, and Radishes Cook's Illustrated 8 oz soba noodles 3 T white miso paste 3 T mirin 2 T toasted sesame oil 1 T sesame seeds 1 tsp ginger, grated 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes 1/3 English cucumber, quartered lengthwise, seeded, sliced thin 4 oz snow peas, strings removed, cut lengthwise into matchsticks 4 radishes, trimmed, halved, sliced thin into half-moons 3 scallions, sliced thin Bring 4 quarts water to boil in large pot.
