Chipotle Salsa

Chipotle Salsa by myra byanka

Homemade Flour Tortillas for Beginners

Homemade Flour Tortillas for Beginners by myra byanka

Make a recipe of these easy prep tortillas, and freeze what you don't need. They are one of the best bread doughs to freeze because nothing in terms of flavor or consistency changes when thawed.

Homemade Chorizo Sausage

Homemade Chorizo Sausage by myra byanka

Frankly, I have never been able to find good store-bought chorizo, so I made up a recipe, which I use for cheese dips, tortilla dishes, scrambled eggs, and lasagna. This tastes best after being in the fridge two days, so prepare it in advance. What you don't use, will freeze.

Easy Chilaquiles by myra byanka

Pull this casserole together in minutes using store-bought rotisserie chicken and canned red or green enchilada sauce. This recipe bypasses frying the tortillas and utilizes a good way to use up stale tortilla chips.
