Chicken Enchilada Casserole with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce

I was going to make enchiladas, but then decided to avoid the assembling of enchiladas and make an enchilada casserole. With the highlight being a roasted red pepper enchilada sauce. Another highlight being that I picked up a rotisserie chicken from the store to make this a quick and easy weeknight dinner. The last highlight being how amazing this was as leftovers for lunch. 

Okay, probably enough highlights. But I will give you one more picture, just to get your drooling.

Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Pumpkin Sauce

I hope you aren't tired of pumpkin recipes yet, because this one's a keeper! 

I had a can of pumpkin that was begging to be used and I was also in the mood for enchiladas. I threw this together, not sure what to expect and it went well beyond my expectations. I love when that happens.

Pure joy in my mouth. It took

It sounds like an excellent idea, but the consensus around my office is that it's definitely not worth driving 900 miles to eat this taco.

So I took this cheesy Dorito crunch inspiration and combined it with the Southwest Chicken Salad from Lauren's Latest (I told you I had my eye on that salad) and let the magic happen. Hey, when I

Deconstructed Sweet Potato, Black Bean & Spinach Enchilada

Remember when I told you about my new obsession with lavash flatbread?

Well this was a pretty darn tasty result of that, especially if you are an enchilada fan like myself. And don't get confused with me getting all fancy and using the term deconstructed (don't you see that on the menu at all of the hip restaurants), this is super easy to make.

This recipe is a knock off of my Butternut Squash, Black Bean & Spinach Enchiladas that you all seemed to enjoy. I swapped out the butternut squash for sweet potatoes and I added some goat cheese gouda that I picked up at Trader Joe's - - if you haven't already, you HAVE
