Morning All:

Saw Popsicle's post last week about the PEACH ENCHILADAS IN SALADO and thought about doing them at the upcoming Sunshine State EggFest, but wanted to try them first. I wanted to do them on the Small Egg since I already had it going and a 9x13 pan wouldn't fit, so I used a 9" round pan. I was only able to get 7 shells into the pan, so I figured I should cut back on the sauce mixture too...used 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 water & 3/4 stick butter...here they are waiting for the sauce (with cinnamin on top, plus I used Blueberry filling instead of Peach)...

And on the Egg after about 10 minutes...

And the finished product...

Popsicle's post said that the liquid would be absorbed and I had what I thought was quite a bit of liquid left, so I'm not sure if I did something wrong...BUT they were VERY tasty and something I will probably do again (but not at the Fest next week).

Popsicle (or anyone else that was at Salado) let me know if they look right...thanks!

Have a GREAT day!

    Jay, your enchiladas look great, glad you tried them. A couple of things could have contributed to the excess liquid. One is the tortilla. We use ones from HEB, kind of thicker than normal, and they seem to absorb the liquid well. Another is the receipt is for 10 to 12 tortillas in the pan so you probably had more filling inside and fewer enchiladas to absorb the liquid. Maybe I should have said that most of the liquid will be absorbed and by the way, the liquid is excellent pored over the finished product when you serve.
    At fest we cut them in 1/3 and hit them with a shot of whipped cream to serve.
