My Mother-In-Law's Cookin'

My mother in law makes killer enchiladas as well as homemade spanish rice, her gravy is pretty splendid too.

Last Christmas while we were there hubby requested her recipes, so he and I both watched her make them and I took down the recipe. Since them I have been trying to make these, and every stinking time they don't turn out half as good as hers.

Maybe it just needs her "touch", because,for the life of me can not make mine like hers. Last night I conceded, we will just have to go visit her more often for these fine cuisines, because I will never get it right!

My MIL also makes good enchaladas and other mexican food (they lived in S CA for a while). My husband knows the recipe and makes good ones, but they aren't as good as hers.

I agree, request her to make them for you next time you go. It's a great form of flattery to a cook to get so many compliments on a dish.
