My favorite part of chili is eating it with chips and cheese and avocado. noms.

Why have I never done this!??! I thought I was a smarty-pants when I made corn muffins to go with chili, but anything that lets me eat more avocado is at the top of my list.

OK, cooks, I'm feeling the urge to try enchiladas. I love chicken enchiladas. Advice me!

I have never made chicken enchiladas, but have made two different vegetarian enchiladas recipes from Real Simple that I absolutely love, so my advice is to go to Real Simple's website and search for enchiladas.

Honestly, that is basically my advice for anything ever. Food Lab and Cooks Illustrated are my favorite cooking resources because I am a little crazy and like learning about the extremes of home cooking, but Real Simple is the one I use the most. At least three recipes a week. Delicious, easy, consistent.

That's the big problem I have with lows - if I get too low I bounce up and down all day - feeling vaguely ill . Good luck Typo.

chili no recipe - there was one a long time ago - but now i just throw stuff in a pot til it comes out right

sending out the ma to stix and plei

I do have an enchilada technique tip, actually. If you use corn tortillas, warm them up before you try to roll them around the food. Less cracking. Microwave 20 seconds (wrapped in a damp paper towel) or use a skillet.

Here's a tip I got from ATK. use boneless chicken thighs, and cut them up and cook them right in the enchilada sauce. Once they're cooked, the chicken goes inside the tortillas with cheese and whatever else, and the sauce poured over the top.

Yes, definitely warm the tortillas.

I've started going to budgetbytes.com for recipes -- I've found them to be easy and delicious. And she has chicken enchiladas! [link]

All the recipes I've seen so far have said to heat up the tortillas. And they look pretty simple. Enchilada sauce and cheese and sour cream make up for a lot.
