Petit Foodie

These enchiladas were the highlight of my day.  I have never enjoyed a meal as much as I did this one.  They left me licking my plate (I do mean literally)…Poor Ava was sitting there looking at me lick my plate clean with a strange, quiet look on her face.  I know she was thinking “Who are you and what have you done with my mommy?”

 

Sensational!
