Haven't we discussed this before?

Rolling in the mud and pulling each other's hair is NOT a discussion.

We learned many years ago, make ourselves a very small plate.

The meaness in me always makes a BIG plate for first timers.

We're on the Llano Estacado (the Texas South Plains around Lubbock ), and we had a white Christmas last year, I think.

A fried egg on top almost makes them illegal!!
----
The first time I ever saw enchiladas with a fried egg on top was in New Mexico. There were soft fried corn tortillas stacked like pancakes with chili, chopped onions, and cheese between each layer with a fried egg on top. I opted out on the fried egg. It's the only time I've eaten enchiladas flat instead of rolled.

Speaking of food...I once had chili served by a transplanted yankee. It was a thin tomato sauce with no seasoning served over spaghetti noodles. Strangest version of chili I've ever eaten.

That is almost how I make my enchiladas. Hamburger meat, cheese and sauce on top of fried corn tortillas; bake until cheese melts, top with lettuce, tomato and a fried egg.

Everyone that eats them comes away from the table miserable ~ ~ they are so good you cannot stop eating them.

Texas has the best Mexican (Panchos, anyone?) food in the country.

Oh, goody... a Texas thread! I can never get enough. Has Pardeck shown up yet to bash us? ;-)

(BTW, anyone wanting to read more about the Lone Star State can find more Texas threads on my Links page.)

You may (or may not) be interested in reading about my experience with that Wench who recently visited my neck of the woods -- Hurricane Rita. (I've been bloggin'. There was nothing else to do! :-)

The part about riding out the hurricane is at the bottom of the page, titled "Hurricane Rita - 2 days later."

BTW, is there any way to make a blog read from top to bottom chronologically? Starting at the bottom of a page just seems so weird.

The worst "chili (?)" I ever had was from up nawth too.
It had such things as kidney beans and tomatoes.....
AND
(Gag!) Believe it or not.......Sugar....You could actually taste the sugar in it....(Gag, Barf)
(Just thinking about it again makes me want to barf)

What I ate in NM was good and your version sounds good, too. It's just that I can't get used to the idea of fried egg with enchiladas. Yellow, runny yolk flowing over my enchiladas...nope...just can't do it.

Sweet chili? That has to be worse than the yankee version of chili I had. At least with bland I could add some salt and pepper. I can't think of any way to correct sweet chili except to throw it out and start over.

Fiddlstix, I award you the 'worst chili story' trophy, so far.

Bum Phillips did not write that piece, it was written by Bob Wheeler. See my previous post.
