2-3 # of 1″ stew beef, cubed.
2 cans tomatoes (peeled)) can be stewed, whole, whatever…
2 c frozen peas
1 c sliced mushrooms (fresh)
2 c cubed cheese
1 tsp dill (chopped fine) (optional)
Mashed potatoes (to serve 6)

In a large oven-proof pot, add some olive oil and cook the mushrooms on
high for 2-3 minutes. Remove mushrooms from pot and set aside. Coat the
beef cubes in flour and brown fully in the pot with a splash more olive
oil. Add tomatoes, peas, onions & mushrooms. Cover and cook in a
325 deg oven for 1& 1/2 to 2 hours.
Cooking time depends very greatly on the cookware you use (glass,
ceramic, steel, copper) and on the amoun you prepare. To halve this
recipe, cook about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

You need to have you mashed potatoes finished and slightly warm about
20 minutes before the stew comes out. At that point, coat a 9×13 glass
pan lightly with butter or margarine. Fold cheese cubes and dill into
mashed potatoes and transfer to your buttered pan. Place in oven for
about 15 minutes.

Place a large spoonful of the mashed potatoes in a broad bowl and pour a ladle of the stew right over it.

This is probably one of my favorite winter foods.

1/3 c veg oil
8 corn or flour tortillas (choice)
4 oz cream cheese, softened.
3/4 c sour cream
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp pepper
2 c shredded cooked chicken
2 c shreddded Monterey Jack Cheese
1 & 1/2 c shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 can enchilada sauce (10 oz)

Heat the veg oil in a medium skillet and use tongs to briefly dip each
tortilla in it, leaving each side to warm for 3-10 seconds. Set aside.

Combine cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper and cumin until smooth
and well mixed. Stir the chicken and 1 cup of each of the cheeses into
the cream mixture you just made.

Dip the tortillas into the enchilada sauce to coat the inside, and
place 1/2 cup of the chicken-cheese mixture into each and roll. Place
seam side down in a greased 9×13 glass baking dish and cover with
remaining sauce.

Bake uncovered at 350 deg for about 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle remaining
shredded cheese on top and heat for 2-3 more minutes to melt. Serve
with onions, sour cream, guacamole, etc.

Makes 4 servings (2 each).

*Note: You can also use shredded beef or pork cooked in seasonings.
