Cheezy Hashbrown Casserole
1 bag Hashbrown potatoes (shredded or cubes)
1lb Cheese, shredded (your favorite or a combo of cheeses)
Cubed ham or cooked chicken
1 can cream soup (I use cream of chicken)
1 can evaporated milk (sometimes use just milk & omit soup)
onion powder
garlic powder
parsley flakes
Mix soup and milk, then season according to your taste with spices. Add cheese & combine well. Stir in potatoes & ham/chicken until everything is well coated & evenly distributed. Put in a greased casserole dish & bake @ 375 for 45 minutes to an hour. It's done when the edges start getting brown & crispy (my fave!) and the middle is hot & bubbly. Leftovers reheat well for breakfast or lunch.

Mom's Enchiladas
1 Can Rosarita Enchilada Sauce
1 small can cream of mushroom soup
1 lb hamburger
1 lb shredded cheese
16-18 corn tortillas
canola oil
Fry the torillas in oil shortly to make them pliable. Set aside to cool.
Brown hamburger & drain. Add cream of mushroom soup & enchilada sauce. (You can leave the sauce thick, or dilute a little with a can of water.) Mix well. Place about 1/3 of the sauce mixture in the bottom of casserole dish (sprayed first with baking spray) or a 9" X 13" pan.
For enchiladas, put cheese on one edge of tortilla & roll up. Place in dish on sauce. Continue until all tortillas are rolled.
Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas. Sprinkle with any remaining cheese. Bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes until cheese is bubbly. (If sauce is hot to begin with, bake for less time. If not, add a little baking time.)
