Enchildas Suizas (& Meal Plan)

-
Hi everyone! I hope you had an awesome weekend and are having a good Monday!

There are certain ingredients that I wish were more readily available here in Germany. But we just have to live without them.  

So when a friend gave us some maiz (corn) tortillas he brought back from Spain, we were particularly excited.

I've added them to this week's meal plan and a few additional recipes that include corn tortillas.
Enchiladas Suizas
I took advantage and went to a store (not so close to our house) and bought green salsa to make my favorite enchiladas, but first, our meal plan:

What we're eating:

Sunday: Enchiladas Suizas
Monday: Mac & Cheese, The homemade version
Tuesday: Tacos
Wednesday: Migas con Huevo (corn tortilla fried in tiny pieces and then add eggs to the mixture)
Thursday: Chicken Parmesan
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Currywurst

I had previously shared the recipe on here but I figured I'd re share it and add the corresponding pictures. I need to thank both my mom and my MIL for teaching me how to make these!Best Mexican Recipe "Enchildas Suizas"

I read Rachel's post: liveblogging  a 12 hour flight to Bangkok and loved it.. granted not every flight is a good one but I figured I'd give this a go and try doing a similar post. I decided to record happenings on my most recent flight, even thought it was less than eight hours it seemed to go okayish and so i'm sharing it with you today. Here's how my flight went down: Before the flight, we were kind of worried about not having any in-flight entertainment since we booked our transatlantic flight with eurowings. 13:03 Board the plane. We get happy the plane does have in flight entertainment. We also noticed that every seat has a water bottle. Sadly only the ones with extra leg room get a blanket/pillow. 13:17  Find out the in flight entertainment requires a 9,99€ payment. 13:44  Time for the safety procedure demo. 13:53  Prepare for take off, then eventually take off. 13:56  Kid behind me says: "guck mal da unten die kleinen Autos." ...

I know I haven't posted anything in a while but I felt like I needed some time off. Lately I haven't had much free time, yet I haven't done much. Allow me to take you back and tell you what happened these past few months.. In July we took a trip to attend a conference in Boston and then stayed an extra week to visit the big apple. I loved getting to revisit this city and got to knock a lot of items of my NYC bucket list. Once we got back from our trip, Avi went back to her last week of school, and my cousin came to visit.. but I kinda screwed up and Avi ended up missing the last day of school (we took a day trip to Berlin instead). We had all of August free, and we took advantage of this (and a wedding in our hometown) and went to visit our family in Mexico. We had a packed two weeks in Mexico, during which we were able to catch up with a lot of friends, visit the BBVA Stadium and  Avi took an intensive swim course, she was able to get the basic done, but she...
