Pinot Noir Enchiladas

[Editor's Note: Wine plus Mexican food? This might be my perfect recipe. The Pinot Noir of the title shows up in the homemade enchilada sauce, but that sauce doubles down as a salsa served alongside the dish after it's baked. It all looks amazingly satisfying, and a great incentive to stay in for a Mexican dinner rather than going out. --Genie] Pinot Noir Enchiladas Rojo  Read more
