This is a great way to use leftover chicken or just stick a couple of breasts in the microwave and steam them until done if you like these as much as I do! This recipe came from my piano teacher in Ridgecrest, CA and its one of our faves!!
Sour Cream Enchiladas
Ingredients:
2 cups cut up cooked chicken
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 pt. (about 1/2 container) sour cream
1 small can green chiles (opt.) or cut up green onions
1 doz. flour tortillas
grated cheese
Combine first 4 ingredients. Spread on tortillas. Roll up and place side by side in pan. Top with cheese. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes!
Quick Easy and Yummy!! These are great the next day so I make the whole batch! (Usually a 9 X 13 and an 8 X 8)
Try it and tell me what you think!
Tip: I buy sour cream when it is on sale and freeze it. It gets a funny look and kinda runny but it works great for this recipe!

Face Match Game
Here is a fun game to play and see what combinations you come up with! The download says to make it into a book and cut the pages and use it that way.
I need more quiet activities to do in sacrament meeting so I pasted the pages onto an empty cereal box and empty soda box (its a green activity! I actually felt pretty cool using these instead of throwing them away:)) Then I cut them into strips and then glued strips of flannel on the back of the pieces.
Then I seperated them into snack bags labeled hats, faces, shirts.
I have a flannel board book we were given for christmas but all you need to do is cover a piece of stiff cardboard with flannel and away you go:)
Finished product!
Hope you enjoy!!

Bird's Milk Cake
This a recipe I got from the Lion House International Cookbook. This is a rich, heavenly yummy cake from Russia! You can serve it the day you make it but I love to let it sit in the fridge overnight... it makes it that much yummier!!! It is a little work but oh soo worth it:)

Cake:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons honey
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
Gonush:
5 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons milk
5 tablespoons cocoa
1/4 cup butter
Directions:
CAKE: Preheat oven to 350 F. In large saucepan, stir together butter, sugar, honey, eggs and vanilla. Cook on low heat, stirring slowly, until sugar dissovles. Remove from heat and add flour and baking soda. Stir until well mixed. Divide dough into 5 equal parts. Prepare 5 9-inch rounds of parchment/ wax paper by spraying with non-stick spray. Place one of the 5 pieces on each paper round. Roll out to fit round (helps if you let dough cool a bit). Bake 5 min. each. Let cool.

Beat butter and 3/4 cup sugar together until light and fluffy. Add cooled mixture and beat well. Place one layer of cake on platter and spread with cream; top with next and layer and continue spreading cream between layers. DO NOT CREAM TOP.
GONASH: Melt all ingredients except butter in saucepan. Bring to boil and boil until mixture is smooth and dark brown in color. Remove from heat and add butter; stir until melted. Spread on top layer.
Either serve right away or let sit over night in the refrigerator for yumminess! Store any leftovers in fridge.
