* guess which book we got from the library this week ;)

and, yes, we do love the enchiladas ;) The leftover reduction sauce from Thanksgiving with the addition of chipotle, becomes a smoky spicy seitan glaze. It added just the right touch to the enchiladas...

also, this concludes the tomato portion of the menu...
