Works-for-Me Wednesday: Home Fries

I'm a potato girl through and through. I love them in any form...at least, any form that's tasty. My weakness? French fries.

I've found a quick way to make some yummy home fries using an apple wedger. Just cut the potato in half, then placing the potato with the flat side on the cutting board use the apple wedger the same way you cut an apple.

It makes for quick home fries. I usually put the cut potatoes in a bowl with 2TBSP of olive oil, salt/pepper, and a bit of garlic powder, then put them in the oven at 400 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes (depending on how crispy you like them).

Early California Enchilada

Ingredients:
1 dozen tortillas
1 pound of cheese
1 can of enchilada sauce (large)
5 onions (chopped and sauted)
4 hard boiled eggs (chopped)
3 cans chopped olives



Directions:
Heat the 2 sauces together in a skillet. With tongs, soften tortillas one at a time in the pan of sauce. Put a spoonful of each ingredient on each tortilla and roll and secure with a wooden toothpick. Put in a casserole dish. Cover with remaining sauce and cheese.

Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.

(Lovely picture...I know)

*Amendments: I used only one onion and found that that was too many onions, and definitely remember to sauté the onions. I missed that part, and you could definitely tell. Also, we upped the egg cook to 6 chopped hard boiled eggs and omitted the olives.
