LA POSTA GREEN CHILE ENCHILADAS FROM MESILLA, NM
Don't bother trying to find the cookbook. It is out of print. I have the 1971 edition. La Posta was a stage stop for the Butterfield Trail during the time of Judge Roy Bean, Billy the Kid and Kit Carson. This is a real restaurant that has not changed it's habits or recipes for over a hundred years. Why? Because the simple recipes...

- 3. Meanwhile soften corn tortillas in hot oil and drain on paper towels.
- 4. Place 1/4 of the green chili sauce on the bottom of a large baking dish. Over the top of the softened tortilla place some cheese (or chicken if you are using meat--add some cheese) and roll. Put on top of the sauce. Continue layering and cover with the rest of the green chile sauce. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until bubbly.
