Fresh Corn Creamy Custard

Image
 Fresh corn makes this dessert so yummy.  I know it sounds weird to use corn in a dessert but you don't have actual pieces of corn in the custard it is sieved through and just the milky corn comes through. I used Knox gelatin packets. I used 2% milk, do not use skim it doesn't hold up and gets too watery.  You can use coconut cream (canned) 6-8 ramekins Use a serrated knife to cut the corn off the cob. Ingredients 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream 1/4 cup sugar 1 Tbsp brown sugar 2 medium ears sweet corn, shucked 1 envelope unflavored gelatin 2 Tbsp cold water 1 cup milk 2% or whole, coconut cream (canned) Lime thinly sliced Lime zest Raspberries, Black Berries or Blueberries Add the heavy cream and both sugars, cook over medium heat until the sugars have dissolved keep stirring.

Enchiladas Homemade Sauce

 These are so good and easy.  If you don't like to make sides like me to go with your Enchiladas then just add the beans to the beef enchilada. I also made chicken enchiladas.  This recipe makes 10-12 in a 13x9 baking dish. You can use tomato sauce but I used pureed tomato.                                                                   I use 2 pkg of taco seasoning. I start my sauce first as it needs to simmer before basting the tortillas.  You can do 1/2 beef and1/2 chicken. I use Sargento or Kraft pre-shredded cheese.  You can use a blend or just cheddar if you prefer. Ingredients 1 pound ground beef and/or rotisserie chicken or both 1 white onion, chopped 1-2 Pkg Taco Seasoning(your choice) 1 pkg flour tortilla, taco or burrito size 1 can (15 oz) refried beans, add some water and smash with a f...
