Preheat oven to 350°.  Grate cheddar cheese and set aside.  Heat carrots, frozen corn and peas in a pan.  Add broccoli when carrots are lightly cooked.  Turn off heat after broccoli is lightly cooked and mix in cream cheese.  Heat a tortilla in a small pan over medium heat until soft and pliable. Remove from pan, move to a plate, and spread 1 tablespoon of refried beans over lower 1/4 section of tortilla.  Add 1 tablespoon of veggie mixture on top of beans.  Roll tortilla.  Continue filling tortillas with remaining ingredients. Pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce in bottom of baking pan.  Add rolled tortillas.  Sprinkle grated cheese on top and ladle remaining sauce over tortillas.  Cover pan with tin foil and make several cuts in foil to allow steam to escape. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.  Serves 6.

[9] The well-known Ecology Flag was created by cartoonist Ron Cobb. The flag was patterned after the flag of the United States, and had thirteen stripes alternating green and white. Its canton was green with a yellow Theta. It originally had a symbol that was a combination of the letters "E" and "O" taken from the words "Environment" and "Organism", respectively. 16-year-old high school student, Betsy Vogel (now, Boze), an environmental advocate and social activist, stitched a 4 x 6 foot copy of the ecology flag to commemorate the first Earth Day. Initially denied permission to fly the flag at C.E. Byrd High School in Shreveport, Louisiana, Vogel sought and received authorization from the Louisiana Legislature and Louisiana Governor John McKeithen in time to display the flag for Earth Day.

[15] Putting the Green into Clean, by Amanda Bower, Time, Nov. 19, 2007. http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1685676,00.html?iid=chix-sphere “Oprah Winfrey, showcased a number of environmentally friendly products on her Earth Day show. She waved toward the other products, saying ‘You know, I haven't tried those products. But I have tried this [the Get Clean dishwasher powder]. I use this now ... I love the packaging.’ Winfrey then raved about Shaklee's Basic H2, an improved, more concentrated version of the cleaner that Forrest Shaklee introduced in 1960. ‘It's amazing,’ she said. ‘You can clean the windows. You can clean the counters. You can clean the floors. You can clean the dishes. You can clean everything ... Love it. Love that H2." See Oprah video at http://myopinion.ireporter.tv/category/oprah-winfrey-show.htm
On Oprah's 11/5 show all about "Staying Young," Oprah and health consultant Dr. Mehmet Oz enthusiastically discuss the benefits of the non-toxic, biodegradable Basic H2 and other Shaklee Get Clean products!
