Cinco de Mayo Comes Early

Last week, we tried a few new recipes from this month's issue of Everyday Food. The Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Green Sauce (shown here) turned out really great. The recipe makes a large quantity - and in hind sight should've probably split into 2 batches, and frozen one. Served this with a side of Black Beans with Lime.

The Buttermilk Chicken Caesar Salad was another hit. Not too difficult to make (just need to pick up some lowfat buttermilk), and I used a bag of butter lettuce and radicchio to save some time. Unfortunately it doesn't look like the recipe is available online.

And finally (yum, yum!), tried the Cream-Cheese Brownies, featured on the magazine cover. Who could resist? The cream cheese mixture turned out a little soupy, so I ended up not using all of it - so to still get the marbled brownie effect. The tip to line part of the pan with parchment paper - to easily lift out the brownies - worked well too.
