1 London broil, about 2-4 lbs.
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1/4 cup lime juice
1 Tbsp. honey
1 1/2 tsp. cumin
Place meat in a shallow dish (we used a crockpot). Make marinade by mixing dressing, lime juice, honey, and cumin. Pour over meat, turning to coat well. Cover and refrigerate, turning occasionally, at least 8-10 hours.
NOTES: Typically London broil is a good meat for broiling (hence the name), but we cooked it in the crockpot for about 4 hours on high. Slow cooking the meat makes it more tender. The recipe for this marinade was on the London Broil package along with a couple of others. There are plenty of other marinade recipes to be found online if southwestern doesn't sound good.
We aren't trying to compete with the foodie blogs here. This is just a place to keep track of and share all the different recipes we try. We like to take the pictures ourselves, even though we don't know a lot about photography.

Zippy Chicken Enchiladas
1 1/2 cups chicken, cooked and cubed
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup sour cream
1 can green chilies, small can
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
6 Tortillas
Mix the soup, sour cream and green chilies in a bowl. Spoon filling onto edge of each tortilla then top with chicken and sprinkle with cheese. Fold into enchiladas and place in a coated 9x13 pan. Spoon any extra ingredients on top of enchiladas and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Make 6 enchiladas.
Notes: We found this recipe here, on a website called Simplify Supper. Looks like a pretty neat site. B cooked the enchiladas for 20 minutes uncovered, and then for 20 more minutes covered with aluminum foil. The bottom of the enchiladas were a little crispy, but B thinks that would be solved by putting some extra sauce on the bottom of the pan.
