Farmers Market Aztec Casserole from Lemony Thyme

To say I love ‘thrifting’ is an understatement.  And as a food blogger, I’m not alone.  We’ve always got an eye out for unique dishes and props to use for our food photography sessions.  I head straight to the dish/cookware section when I enter a thrift store then head to the cookbook shelf.  Last week while visiting our local Humane Society Thrift Store I spied this gorgeous cookbook.  The cover recipe was for Budín Azteca aka Aztec Casserole which matched this week’s Farmers Market bounty beautifully.

Chicken Chilaquiles with Fried Eggs

Chicken Chilaquiles. Chee-lah-KEE-less. Chicken-ala-cheese-ness.

There are about a bazillion corn tortillas in a package.  Have you noticed that?  No matter what recipe I make with them, inevitably I will have half a bazillion leftover.  That’s what led me to this classic Mexican dish.  Chilaquiles are traditionally made from corn tortillas that may have been hanging around for a bit…aka stale.

Huevos Rancheros

While these aren’t near authentic Huevos Rancheros, they are a nice twist on those wonderful Mexican Ranch Eggs.  I tossed onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes in olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper and then roasted them for about 20 minutes until the onions were tender and the tomatoes began to burst.  Continue reading »
