One Pot Wonder: Turkey Enchilada Casserole

Preheat oven to 375.

Prep: brown 1 LB of ground turkey and season, to taste. (I use 1-2 tsp of grill seasoning) Set aside.

In a heavy bottom oven safe pan, heat 2 TBS of EVOO and 1 TBS of Butter.

Chop: 1 onion, 1 jalepeno pepper, and 2 cloves of garlic. (I like to grate mine)

Drop in pan and season with 1 heaping tsp of ground cumin and salt, to taste. No need for pepper. Brown until tender and fragrant, about 8 minutes.

Drain and rinse a can of black beans. Chop 6-8 corn tortillas into pieces. Drain, rinse, and chop half a can of black olives. Not crazy for black olives? Eliminate them.....I only added them to original recipe because Cuyler requests them in EVERYTHING that I cook.

Stir in the chopped tortillas, browned turkey, beans, and halved olives.

Pour in a jar of tomatillo salsa or 3 7oz cans of tomatilla sauce, if your grocery doesnt have a good green salsa. Bring to a boil.

Chop a handful of cilantro and grate 2 cups of cheese. I use a mix of Monterey Jack and Cheddar.

Turn off the heat and mix in the cilantro and half the cheese.

Top with the rest of the cheese and pop it straight into the oven. Be sure your using a pan that is oven safe. Bake for 20 minutes.

Garnish: sour cream (I use Greek Yogurt instead, as a low fat option) and some cilantro leaves. I have it pictured here with a salsa filled avocado......a perfect low carb option. No chips! Salt and eat with a spoon....yum! Costco makes a really good organic red salsa that is super affordable.

Hope you like this! It's easy and delicious!

Anyone try to make the chili from a few weeks ago? More one pot wonders go come.

'Fallen Princesses' place fairy tale characters in modern day scenarios.. The princess is placed in an environment that articulates her conflict. "The happily ever after," is replaced with a realistic outcome and addresses current issues.

I first saw the Snow White photo on Etc. I thought it was clever and hilarious! After looking through the rest them, I felt sort of sad. They are less funny and more disturbing then I had initially thought.

I guess even grown-ups still want to believe in fairy tales.

'Trackrecord’ began with my interest in gambling in general and turned into what I have termed as my photo anthropological quest. At first I wanted to visually document today’s ‘instant gratification’ society that prays off of those who crave immediate contentment. I specifically related with this phenomenon, as I am prone to the excitement it offers. My plan was to cover bingo halls, casinos, the track, pool halls, the Internet and anywhere else that gamblers congregate.

When I discovered the Trackback project on the photographers website I felt happy again. I used to think that portraiture meant posed Sears photos and huge wedding dress shots, yikes!

I think that these are amazing! Who are these people? Aren't you curious what their stories are?

Mary

This is my little sister Mary.

And she's .........pretty cool!
She is smart, funny, incredibly kind, insanely beautiful, very driven and successful........the list goes on and on. She just came to Atlanta for a girls weekend, and I thought that it might be fun to dig through her suitcase and see what hip 20 something, pre-baby girls are wearing these days.

She arrives, hooray! Traveling attire: skinny jeans, v-neck tee, a long cardi, flats, and a scarf.

Baggage: a suprisingly large suitcase for a weekender and a great cross body Coach bag. Contents: various nursing literature (the girl never stops!), iPod, iPhone, Marc sunnies, Tory wallet, a million lip glosses, pretty eyeshadow duo, and a handful of hair accessories.

Mary's new obsession in the accessories category, fabric and embellished hairbands. So fun!

Chunky cuffs, gold bangles, and a rose gold Michael Kors Runway Watch. (I'm totally jealous of the watch, it's pretty gorgeous!)

Pretty earrings, all shapes and sizes.

Obviously loves the long and layered look when it comes to necklaces.

Daytime option: cute denim pleated shorts, flowy romantic top, and some woven sandals.

Other daytime options: stripes!!!! skinnies, color block tee, long cardi and flats. Pleated shorts, washed silk tee, and gladiator espadrilles.

Nighttime option: flared jeans, doleman long sleeve, ombre scarf, and nude patent platforms.


Other nighttime options: dark denim skinnies with silk asymmetrical top. Grey super skinnies, cotton tank with peplum, and super cute Tory clutch with chain strap.

Workout gear: soft and sustainable tee, Nike shorts, and sneaks.

Amy and me: the big sisters. (Technically I am the oldest, for the record....Amy, ha.) I got lucky when I moved back to Atlanta! My sister was here, yay. We hang at least once a week at the insistence of Carson.....she loves her Mamy!!!

Amy and Mary: the blondies. Check out Amy's new JCrew necklaces layered on Mary, we were obsessed with them all night!


Due to the fact that the three of us rarely get to be together, and that we have a lot of fun when we do, we were basically a love fest all weekend. So, for the people that noticed us hugging on each other and asked, we would reply proudly:
"We are sisters."

When further explanation was needed:
"When we were both five my dad married her mom, and together they made Mary."

Common response:
"Awe!"

We miss you Mary!
