Angie’s Chilaquiles
My friend Angie made these Chilaquiles last week and it's all I could think about. It's a fantastic recipe that she made up. You can also use the sauce for huevos rancheros. Chilaquiles is a traditional Mexican dish. Typically, corn tortillas are cut in quarters lightly fried and topped with green or red salsa. Usually, chilaquiles are eaten at breakfast or brunch. This makes them a popular recipe to use leftover tortillas and salsas.

One Pot Dirty Rice
Dirty rice is a traditional Cajun and Creole dish made from white rice which gets a "dirty" color from being cooked with small pieces of chicken liver or giblets, green bell pepper, celery, and onion, and spiced with cayenne and black pepper. This version skips the chicken livers, which I suppose makes it a Not-So-Dirty-Rice! This spicy One Pot Dirty Rice is a great weeknight meal served with cornbread.

Lemon Mushroom Chicken
I am having a hard time adjusting to being an "empty nester". The only good thing is that I can make things the girls hate, like mushrooms!
