Cooking with My Family Photo Essay

The meal I decide to make with my family was Enchiladas with a side of re fried beans. I chose to make this meal arbitrary. 

Below are some ingredients I used to make the Enchiladas;

To the left and right is a can
of mild Enchilada sauce. It contains the ingredients; water, dried red Chile peppers, salt. cottonseed oil, cider vinegar, Fumaric acid, garlic powder, spice, Olive oil. Th sauce is used to cover Enchilada shells and the bottom of the pan.


To the bottom and right is two pictures of Mission Yellow Corn
Tortillas. The Tortillas are used as the shell of the enchiladas.

 To the left and bottom right are some Green Onions. After you cut the green onions into little slices you use them to make to middle of the Enchilada.

 
To the left and right is a small can of Hatch Diced Green Chiles. Which is also used to make the Enchilada mix.

 To the right is a can of Rosarita Traditional Refried Beans. I used these as a side dish of the Enchiladas. 

To the left is a picture of  a bag of  Sargento Classic 4 Cheese Mexican. The cheese was use to mix with the Enchiladas and to top off the Enchiladas. 

To the left and bottom right are pictures of the
Enchilada mix. The mix contains Hatch Diced
Green Chiles, Green Onions and Sargento 
Classic 4 Cheese Mexican mixed together in 
a bowl. 


                         


                           

To the left is a picture of the Enchiladas before they were placed in the oven to cook. To make the Enchiladas I use a corn tortilla shell, spread the Enchilada sauce on it, poured on some of the mix and rolled it up (almost like a roll taco). I repeated this several times and laid them into a pan, I added some extra sauce and cheese on top and put them in the oven.

In the last two pictures there is two Enchiladas and some re fried beans on a plate with a fork. That's what I made for my "Cooking with My Family Photo Essay".

History / China

Great Wall of China. Picture from http://www.great-wall-of-china.org/

    Today I learned about the Great Wall of China. It took about 2,000 years to build and cost 1,000,000 peoples  lives. The wall was originally built in smaller parts by the 7 states of China, although Chin combined all the 7 states together and named it "China" after his home town. Also I learned that if workers were buried into the wall. Prisoners and people who were considered to be against China were forced to build to the wall.
