CAN I find anything for dinner? Sure I CAN!



TORTILLA-LESS ENCHILADAS



The only thing I had fresh in the house was an onion, left-over cooked brown rice and some cheese.  I was really hungry for something yummy so I prepared a new dish – TORTILLA-LESS ENCHILADAS.  It was a big hit!



INGREDIENTS



1 cup cooked brown rice                          1 medium Onion diced


2 only 15 oz. cans Black Beans, rinsed     12.5 oz. can cooked chicken


4 oz. can Mushroom pieces/stems            4 oz. can Chopped Green Chilies


10 oz. can mild Enchilada Sauce               2-1/4 oz. can sliced black olives (or 10 large)


1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese    1-1/4 cup or more shredded Cheddar cheese



Set oven thermostat to 350 degrees.



Everything gets mixed together in one bowl and then placed in a casserole.


Chop the onion and put in a large bowl.


Add the cooked rice.


Open all the canned goods.


Rinse the beans and add to bowl.


Before adding the chicken pieces to the bowl shred pieces a little bit so there are no big chunks.


Add the black olives, mushrooms, chilies, enchilada sauce, and the Monterey Jack Cheese and stir everything till it is well mixed.


Scrape bowl contents into a 9 x 13 casserole and top with cheddar cheese.


Place casserole dish in pre-warmed oven for 30 minutes or until it looks browned and bubbly.
