Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Your shopping list, ma'am

1 spanish onion
4-6 cans of diced green chilis
4-6 chicken breasts
10-20 corn tortillas
can of cream of mushroom soup
can of chicken broth
container of sour cream
grated cheddar/jack cheese
jar of salsa

also need:
butter or spread
flour
vegetable/canola oil

1. soften corn tortillas in hot oil, save for later.
2. boil chicken breasts, shred, save for later.
3. sautee quarter stick of butter/spread with chopped up spanish onion in a large skillet, med heat
3a I usually add some garlic and a dash of cayenne pepper too.
4. add 1/4 cup of flour and brown the onions
5. slowly stir in chicken broth...you'll have onion paste
6. add green chilis and a bit of salsa
7. stir in mushroom soup and sour cream
8. In a corningware or stoneware thingy (forgive me, I know not what they are called, I just use them), put down a layer of corn tortillas, then a layer of shredded chicken, sprinkle in some cheese, cover with a layer of the green chili concoction.
9. repeat as needed (usually I get a couple of layers
10 final layer should be topped with corn tortillas and remaining green chili concoction
11.bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes
12. top with a layer of cheese, bake until cheese melts

additional sour cream, cheese and salsa can be added to individual taste after serving
tastes even better the next day!

At the risk of sounding too much like a girl...I have started a file on my computer with BF-Road Forum recipes. I have a fantastic bread recipe from Grumpy and Chip's Chicken Enchilada Casserole. Anyone else care to add to the collection?

Here is one that I stole from JSharr. It goes equally well with beer or Margaritas.

Hey Bike Forums people! Happy New Year! I did the Mount Wilson ride for the 10th (I think) time in a row and it was wonderful. The best weather I've experienced on the ride. The last 5 miles is a shaded climb up to the summit, and there was ice and snow on the road in places, but they had sanded it pretty well, (they don't use salt in California). Anyway, I wish you all could have been there with the 100 or so other riders. A friend took some pics, I'll put some here later if I can.

What, and sacrifice the one night of the year it's acceptable to get sheet-faced!? . . . I don't think so!

Glad you had a good ride, John . . . I'll enjoy it vicariously through the photos.

No worries. I enjoyed your recipe very much last night. Skipped the steps with the fish, though, and just went straight to the margaritas.

Only one now, stupid dial-up is so slow. This is me looking chunky before putting all my layers back on for the descent. The top of Mt Wilson is around 5800 feet, high enough to be chilly.

I don't know what time it was but we were among the first 1/3 or so. We left Oro Vista a little after 9:00.
Did you go up Big Tujunga? Were you with the racers? Take any pics?

You the man, John . . . tuff enough. I'm chilly just looking at you in those shorts up there. You look to be about my age, so I'm impressed.

Yep, I'm going to ride vicariously through you until the spring thaw.

Nice to show these wusses that one can still ride when it's cold...

It's -30C here this morning.

Yep... still riding.

Here is the wussy profile.

Stupid cleats are hard enough to walk in when it's dry.

I don't know who the madman in the short sleeves is, but he was asking for newspaper at this car. Lucky for him, Sarah brought some with her. She also brought food, water, and hot coffee for us. I had everything I needed, though, and couldn't drink any more coffee.

That's vertical bob in the blue.
