Cheese Enchiladas

[Braff Zacklin 13557]

No need to essplane, mang. Eeet look good to me.

[Armybrat 40832]

Ready for the oven -

two big pans are real enchiladas, the two smaller ones are vegan. 
 

 

[utee94 15811]

Gotta put those on separate racks in the oven so the real enchiladas don't bully the vegan ones too much.

Where's the onions on top?

[Texzilla58 4733]

What goes in a vegan enchilada? Cashew cheese? I don’t really comprehend the concept.

Not so fast! Vegans are evolving too. In some circles, real cheese from a consensually milked cow is permitted.

She put the chopped onions in a bowl to be dished up by those who wanted them. 
Turns out that three family members prefer to do without the extras.

The ground “meat” comes in packages of plant-based protein and the fake cheese is from a package labeled Daiya.

So a hot dog is not a sandwich but that abomination is a cheese enchilada.

I’m of the belief if a pig eats corn and grain then bacon is plant based.

Otherwise I will enjoy my place at the top of the food chain.

Why are they invited?

[Armybrat 40832]

Because they are family.

Time for a "come to Jesus" meeting with the vegans. 

[Deej 76759]

I'll never understand the vegans who want their food to look like meat. 

"I don't eat vegetables. Can you make my brisket look like broccoli?"

Most vegans and vegetarians give it up and revert to eating meat in some form. This would have been a perfect catalyst moment to push your veg head family back to the world of eating animals. Your only vegan offering should have been a corn tortilla.

or just put regular enchiladas in the small pan, and laugh later. 😁

Every time I go to Houston, I go from IAH straight to the Cantina ( the one in Memorial) for the tres hombres and a damn goode rita

I’m of the opinion that photo should be declared the State Photo of Texas. Not a pic of the Alamo or Big Bend or Willie Nelson. That spread of Mexican food from Tres Hombres.

As a young kid in Memphis, raised as a misplaced Texan, that photo while listening to Master of Sparks and Waitin for the Bus, struck strong Texas feels like nothing else ever did, especially after a few bong hits.

Those of you who’ve never lived in places without ready access to real TexMex don’t know how missing it triggers bad homesickness.

[jimmyjazz 45898]

Somewhere I saw an article or blog where someone recreated that spread.  It's probably on this thread.  Very cool.

We used to go to Leo's regularly, in part just in hopes that BFG would show up and surprise us. That was a terrific neighborhood mainstay restaurant and it's missed.

Made some beefers with cheddar, aged white cheddar, and some Cotija. Pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Holy Mother of God-if heaven doesn't have these on the menu, I'll have to consider other eternal options.

Enchiladas suizas at Danny’s in Laredo today.

[Deej 76759]

That is a tiny basket of chips.

[4th&Five 41525]

Met an old friend at Maudie’s on LA Blvd. for lunch yesterday. Hadn’t had some Josie’s enchiladas in quite few years. Pretty damn good.

It was worth the drive from Nocona to enjoy such excellent enchiladas.

These look great. They look just like the ones my mother in law makes. But she hates shredded cheddar cheese. So she takes slices of American cheese and uses the cheese grater on them to sprinkle it on top. I thought she was insane for doing it but the enchiladas tasted fucking amazing when the cheese melted.

i'm trying to imagine the physics of trying to grate a slice of American cheese...

Bout like shredding  velveeta. One hell of a mess without partial freezing or super cold from the fridge.

Maybe american from the deli? Kraft deluxe?

 

[Anastasis 23469]

Block of hill country fair American from the deli. Throw in the freezer for a few minutes. Process in cuisinart with shredder attachment. I have been known to use Kraft singles for nachos when times are tough.

The ones who try to pass cauliflower tossed in wing sauce as wings are worse than people who think chicken nuggets are boneless wings.
