Doris Smith's Enchiladas
Veggie
Enchiladas
1 box Mexican Rice mix (I
use Rice-a-Roni)
1 16 oz can pinto
beans with chipolte or jalapena peppers
1 16 oz can black beans
1 16 oz can white beans
All beans drained and rinsed
1 4 oz can chopped
green chiles
1 16 oz can whole
kernel corn
1 5 oz can sliced
black olives
1 large onion chopped
2 cups shredded
cheddar cheese (or more, your discretion. May want extra for topping)
2 dozen fat-free
flour tortillas
1 large can La Palma
green enchilada sauce (I usually use 1 and 1/2 cans or more)
Prepare rice according to
package instructions.
Add beans, chilies,corn,
olives, and onions to rice mixing well
Divide among 24 tortillas
add cheese, then roll. (You will use about a quarter cup of the rice mixture for
each enchilada)
Place enchiladas, seam side
down, in 2 greased 13 x 9 inch pans (I sometimes use three pans with 8 each)
(I use Pam and lay
the tortillas in the pan to roll)
Cover with enchilada sauce
Bake at 350 degrees until bubbling
Hope you will enjoy the Enchiladas

HARRY'S KARTOFFEL SALAT 
Yes, the same salad that was the hit of the Lone Pine Oktoberfest outing
Wash and then boil a pot of potatoes with their jackets on. Be careful when you boil the potatoes. Pour off the water before they are too well boiled. They may otherwise crumble when you slice them and you dont want mashed potatoes (with mayo).
While potatoes are boiling, mix the below in a bowel:
1. Mayo (the real stuff not low cal, and more is better)
2. 1 raw chopped onion
3. 1 chopped apple
4. a little mustard
5. a good portion or chunk of chopped, hot, salami
6. hard boiled chopped eggs
7. diced dill pickles and some pickle juice
8. olive oil (not much, if any)
9. Salt (if you think you put in to too much, the next day you wish you had put in more)
10. Chopped green onions, and maybe a carrot to dress it all up
11. Chopped parsley (but hold for later to decorate)
Now peel and slice the still warm boiled potatoes.
Dont slice too thin.
Mix all, but dont stir too much to keep the slices as much intact as possible
Sprinkle (for eye-appeal) top of salad with the chopped parsley.
Itll taste better the second day.
Enjoy und Guten Appetiet!

ASPARAGUS SPEARS
KG6AQO's Recipe
Per our resident gourmet and winemaker, KB6IYN, "This is one of the best hors d'oeuvres served at the Lake McClure outing."
25 fresh asparagus spears salt to taste
25 thin slices white bread remove crust and flatten
8 oz. Cream cheese, softened
3 oz. Blue cheese
1 egg
1 to 11/2 cups butter
Trim asparagus spears to same length as bread slices.
Blanch spears until barely tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
Drain immediately and plunge spears into cold water to stop cooking.
Combine cheeses and egg in medium bowl and blend with an electric beater.
Spread mixture evenly on bread slices.
Place an asparagus spear on each slice and roll up.
Dip each roll in melted butter to coat all sides then place on a cookie sheet.
Freeze rolls until hard, then repackage in freezer
containers.
When ready to bake, cut frozen rolls into thirds and bake while still frozen in 400-degree
oven for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
Serve immediately. Makes 75 pieces.
(I put in freezer bags and take out as many as I need.
Wonderful to have on hand.)

WHOLE WHEAT Bread
Regular (small) Loaf
Don Duncan KG6FAY
2-1/2 cup Water
2 tsp. Salt (tsp.= teaspoon)
2 tbs. Molasses (tbs.= tablespoon)
1/3 cup Coarse ground whole-wheat grain
1/3 cup Steel-cut Oats cereal, or other Oat cereal
1/3 cup 7-grain (or 10-grain) cereal
1/3 cup Whole Flax Seed
1/3 cup Ground Flax Seed
1/3 cup Sesame seeds
3 tbs. Wheat Gluten
2-2/3 cup Whole Wheat Flour
2 tsp. Active dry yeast
Put water into bread machine, and add molasses and salt.
Stir, or agitate, to dissolve the molasses.
Add the coarse ground whole wheat, Steel-cut Oats, 7-grain cereal, whole flax seed, ground flax seed, sesame seeds. Manually stir these ingredients with the knead bar to get a more or less uniform blend of the dry grains.
Add the Whole Wheat Flour, and wheat gluten.
Place the Active dry yeast on the top of the other dry ingredients
Set the bread maker cycle, as required / desired.
Notes:
I use a West Bend Bread & Dough Maker, which has a 5" x 5" square by 6-1/2" deep pan. I set the controls for the Whole Wheat Rapid Cycle (about 3.5 hours) and the Dark Bread Color. At the end of the cooking period, the bread comes out of the pan very moist in the middle. To alleviate this condition somewhat I generally remove the loaf from the bread maker pan, and put the loaf into a pre-heated 350 deg. F. oven for about 15 or 20 minutes to finish baking.
If the loaf rises too high in your machine you can cut back on the wheat gluten, or reduce / eliminate some of the grain quantities.
The normal Whole Wheat cycle works very well also, but it takes 4 hrs. 10 minutes to complete, and Im usually too impatient to wait that long, since the loaf is still moist in the middle and also needs the oven time to finish.

LA TIMES 3-2-96
Reader Marvin Ehenberg of Claremont says his wife went shopping one day and took their 4 ½ year old daughter with her. They were driving along when the little girl suddenly inquired:
"Mommy, where are all the bastards?"
After a brief, shocked silence,
Mom replied in a matter-of-fact way:
"Honey, they only come out when Daddy is driving."
