The spinach adds a nice flavor. The Sauce isn't too heavy as most are. I used 2 cloves fresh garlic and added a little fresh cilantro to the spinach mix. Dividing the fillings into 3 parts and laying out 4 shells when adding the "stuffings" made it easier to keep each sort of uniform. I only had flour tortillas so a few days later the leftovers were sort of gummy but the rest was still yummy. If you use flour tortillas keep some of the shell exposed so that during baking they will brown and look nice. Sprinkle w/green onions or avacado for pretty presentation. My mom just called me for the recipe!

I love the upper midwest, where my husband and I have made our home. We raise our two beautiful children in a small town west of the Twin Cities.
I am an engineer who has progressed to Stay At Home Mom and now just recently, Homeschooler. Never in a million years would I have expected THIS! Now, my focus has progressed from career-driven to family-driven.
I love to cook, and I use my engineering degree in my cooking. I love to learn how to do things, and why things work. Some of the things I've learned is: How to make yogurt, cheese, soap, and many other things that my friends taunt me about. I don't mind. I would go nuts otherwise.
My husband only gets paid once a month. So, I have become a meal planner & Once A Month Cooking lover. I shop on the first of the month, and only buy needed dairy and fresh ingredients through the rest of the month. So, I look for meals that work with our plans.
And, one last note: I do have a small job to get me out of the house. I am a dance instructor, and LOVE to dance (which is where my silly photo came from). So, if you were to peek in my windows (which I don't recommend by the way - he he he) you'd see me cooking and dancing. They seem to go together SO WELL!!
