Mexican Memories

The first Valentine's Day my husband and I spent together found us going out to a really romantic Italian restaurant in Austin... on the 13th (because, seriously, who can get a reservation on V-Day anymore? Plus they hike up the price so it's almost not worth it!). So, on actual Valentine's Day, we decided to cook, even if it was in my husband's TEENY-TINY apartment kitchen he had in college (I don't think both of us fit at the same time!). I think this is one of the first meals we ever made together, thus embarking on a lifetime of culinary endeavors! We even re-created this meal a year later, once we had both graduated and were working. It will always be a special dinner in our home, despite the simplicity of the actual meal itself.

We made enchiladas. Now, these aren't really authentic, dripping in sauce, enchiladas (but give me a break, I'm originally a New Yorker). But they are delicious, and very simple to make.
You can find the recipe here.
Rotisserie chicken (shredded), onion, bell pepper, salsa, cream cheese... 
how can you go wrong with that combination?
 Fill tortillas...
 Top with salsa...
 and don't forget the best part! I LOVE cheese!
Ta-Da! Not much too it, but makes a lot, and now I've
got something to look forward to in my lunch this week!
