Had two buddies over to study last night and write up a thirty-minute project for school. I took the opportunity to duck out of the room and make some sloppy beef enchiladas. Just sauteed onions, browned beef, drained and salted with my Mexican seasoning added. Roll 'em up in a pan, cover with a can of enchilada sauce and smother with shredded cheddar and bake until melty. Mmmm, "I know ya likes 'em sloppy!!"

I got tired of opening several containers (and then closing several containers) to season Mexican food the way I like it. So I bought all the seasonings, whisked them in a bowl, and poured them into a large parmesan cheese shaker I bought at the dollar store. Doesn't matter how much you make, just use equal parts (one jar, or a half-jar) of each of the following:

one part coriander
one part cumin
one part chili powder
1/2 parts garlic powder
one part onion powder
1/4 to 1/2 part cayenne pepper (depending on how hot you want it)

Now I just liberally dust whatever I want to have that Latino flavah, and add salt. Done!
