Chilaquiles

    Pretty much followed the recipe to a tee ... and we really liked it! used yellow corn chips - salted, and added a 15 oz can of white hominy to the mixture. I cornered a really nice Hispanic lady in the grocery about the Farmer's cheese to found out that what I needed was Queso Fresco ... da! But maybe I'm not the only numbskull out there ... so I thought I would mention it. I did add some sour cream to the top when I served it ... and we went back for seconds!!! ;) I think some homemade avocado dip would be great on top as well. I'm going to have fun messing around with this dish for sure. Thanks
