So tell her to cook her own food. You've mentioned a couple of things
she has made for herself - scrambled eggs and a grilled cheese sandwich
made with Kraft singles she bought herself. Otherwise, tough luck.

You really need to find someone else to harass. She has a family -
something you will never have. You have a "SO" who loves you so much he
rarely visits. Back off.

Why do you feel the need to veer off into other things and tell me what to
do? I don't run my house that way and I wouldn't. You're just plain nasty.
A lot of people here are nasty. And rude. Very, very rude. I like to
cook. I like to cook food that people will want to eat.

I specifically asked if anyone had made this type of enchiladas. This is
loosely the recipe that I used.

http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Cottage...en-Enchiladas/

I say loosely because I rarely ever follow a recipe to a tee. Obviously I
didn't have boiled chicken. And I didn't use enough chicken even though I
used much more than what I would say was the equivalent of 2 chicken breast
halves. I also used two cans of enchilada sauce. I don't think one can of
that size would have been enough for 12 enchiladas. Oh and I didn't use 12
tortillas either. I used 9. I ran out of chicken at that point. Had I
made them as stated they would have taken very little chicken per roll.

Since my chicken was already cooked, I put the onions in the pan with a
little oil, then cooked them until soft. Added the chicken to heat through.
Added the remains of a bottle of jalapeno Tabasco sauce, probably 2 T., some
crushed red pepper, some chili powder and the chilies. I did have a little
leftover of the cottage cheese mixture but I also didn't do that right. I
was in a super hurry and only glanced at the recipe. I did not see that I
should have mixed the shredded cheese in. And I couldn't find the cheese
that was called for so I bought a mix called Mexican. Angela helped me to
make them. We put the sauce on top, split between two smaller pans so I
won't have a partially full pan in the fridge and I know that enchiladas are
hard to transfer to another container... She then threw the shredded cheese
on top and I put the remaining cottage cheese mixture on top. I actually
made extra of that because I had intended to make 18 enchiladas. Oddly, I
got half that. But it was all good. Husband ate them with no complaints.
I served them with a side of rice that I accidentally purchased. It's a
rice and black bean mix. I grabbed the wrong thing from the shelf. Oh and
there was guacamole on top because he likes it.

I am having a ground beef burrito with some of that rice.

Angela got her own meal, not because I told her to. Because she didn't like
my options and she said that she would. I did tell her to make sure to eat
vegetables. I'm sure that wasn't a problem since we have plenty in the
fridge.

Please stop giving me unwanted advice Jill. If I wanted to speak to the
woman, I could figure out how to do that. I don't want to. And she doesn't
want to eat enchiladas at home. Why? Who cares.

I also don't cook weird crap. And I'm a very good cook.

Indeed! A lot of people here really do seem to have issues. I don't know
what they are exactly but it's not good.

Uh no, Jill. How 'bout I just tell you to shut the **** up! Because I am
getting sick of this. I don't care what you would do or what happened to
you as a kid. Sounds like you were probably abused and certainly not
spoiled. I was spoiled. I like to spoil people if they are appreciative.
You also referred to some people from your teen years as sluts. In real
life, I try very hard to avoid people like you. They're just not pleasant.

Just shut up Jill. You have no kids. You know nothing. Someone once told
me that a sandwich always tastes better when someone else makes it. If you
don't "get" that, then I do feel sorry for you. Have a nice day!

I merely asked if anyone had made chicken enchiladas with cottage cheese.
And I don't think it is a weird recipe because there are tons of recipes out
there that contain it.

I have done it to one other one too. For the rest? I think I will just gag

Trust me, Daughter has pre-hated them. She despises them. They are crap.
No need for her to taste it first. Shove a bowl of Fruit Loops at her and
be done with it.

Well there is the "you didn't make it" angle but you did serve it so
therefore she will hate it.

Spoiling your kid is only going to make her life very, very hard. You are
doing her great harm or should I say you have done her great harm. I would
get used to it because I doubt she will ever leave the house even if she
finds your cooking repulsive.

I am no shrink but I am certain that is not normal. Won't eat grapes if you
serve them? Just bizarre. You clearly like being abused as much as she
enjoys abusing you. In the shrink world it is called codependency. Better
plan on her living with you for a very long time. I doubt either of you can
live without the other.

Throw the chicken away. Give your daughter money to buy groceries,
and she can do her own cooking; she's old enough. Ditto your
husband.

Problem solved, permanently.

You're welcome.

From a dictionary definition of "spoil"

harm the character of (a child) by being too lenient or indulgent.

synonyms: overindulge, pamper, indulge, mollycoddle, cosset, coddle, baby, wait on hand and foot, kill with kindness; nanny
"his sisters spoil him"

Sounds like there's plenty wrong with being spoiled, another definition
of which is "ruined".

Just shut up! That didn't solve any problem. You're just an irritant. Oh!
I guess I just don't understand you. Yeah. That must be it.

We have already determined that chicken enchiladas actually contain chicken
which your brood refuses to eat in that incarnation. So no recipe will
please them.

Just get a huge bag of Fruit Loops and be done with it. They will probably
decide they hate that too so be sure to have some Frankenberry and Count
Chocula on the ready. They will probably demand you spoon feed them but
that is just normal.

What the **** you get out of a cooking group is beyond me.

There is a lot of truth to that, not just with sandwiches. Sometimes it

Definition of a spoiled child; a brat nobody wants to be with.

You're training your spoiled daughter to be socially unacceptable
just like her parents.

Such a great cook that the people you cook for refuse to eat that
crap.

And how! As a result, now you're a damaged adult incapable of normal
social relationships.

But they aren't appreciative, are they. They throw your efforts back in
your face, over and over again.

What you have in common, is teenagers, and their social lives.

Any parent of teens should know who their friends are and where they
hang out.

You don't need to like your child's friends parents or socialise with
them but you sure as hell need to know that if your daughter goes to a
party or sleepover at their house, that the adult hosts are in residence
and supervising appropriate social behaviour for the age group you have
in common.

Now I know that you have flipped out. "Jealous"?...hardly. Why would I
or any poster on this forum be jealous because you soiled your child to the point of damaging her psyche forever. Do you have any concept of the damage you are doing?

You are creating a clone of yourself...the poor girl...I feel so sorry for her.

She says I couldn't possibly understand this because I don't have
children. You bet your life my parents always knew who my friends were
and how to contact their parents in case of emergency. And that was
back in the days when there was no such thing as cell phones.

I can't eat the chicken so that doesnt matter. And no, the let her starve
thing would not work. If I was constantly faced with food that I did not
like, I would starve. In fact I once almost did. It was not for that
reason. There was illness involved but I did almost starve to death. It
wasn't pretty and I wish people would not say mean stuff like that. People
who talk like that are clearly not picky eaters.

True but my family probably wouldn't eat the end results. I have found out
that none of us really like things like sauces and gravies. I will eat
gravy. I don't have to have it though. They don't like it at all.

It actually works. I would prefer ricotta. That's if I could eat dairy.
But when I had extra cottage, that is one thing I would make. Also works in
brownies much like cream cheese would. But in that case I would whip it
well and add a little lemon extract.

You think cottage cheese is not dairy? WTF.

No human would starve themself to death if faced with food they simply did
not like. Get a grip on reality.

Shrug. I gave you the advice that you needed. It's not my problem that
it wasn't what you wanted. That's Usenet in a nutshell. If you don't
like it, you're free not to read and post.

Your daughter won't starve. I learned to cook for myself when I was 11.
Yours should be able to manage it at 17.
