Buffalo Blue Cheese Vegetarian Taquitos

Posted on March 17, 2017 | 6 comments

These buffalo blue cheese vegetarian taquitos were created completely on a whim. Oftentimes I buy a few extra ingredients that aren’t on my grocery list at the store, simply because they are on sale. One night when I needed a quick weeknight meal, I riffled through the fridge and found some 6-inch tortillas, so I whipped up these taquitos . I had seen a vegan buffalo taquitos pin on pinterest and thought it looked like a fantastic idea, but I hadn’t even look at the recipe. As it turned out, my version is loaded with tangy blue cheese, as well as a healthy does of vegetables! Continue reading →

Black Bean and Corn Enchilada Spaghetti Squash Boats

Posted on January 27, 2017 | Leave a comment

Last summer one of the few vegetables I grew in my garden was spaghetti squash. Gardening is a pure delight for me, and the joys can last all season long with vegetables like spaghetti squash that will keep for months. I love how versatile spaghetti squash are for making all kinds of meals. Spaghetti squash can go way beyond spaghetti and meatballs, like this black bean and corn enchilada spaghetti squash boats recipe. Continue reading →

Zucchini Corn and Bean Enchiladas

Posted on January 6, 2017 | 6 comments

Happy New Year everyone! This is my first post of the new year, and I’m so excited to share my plans for the year. As I shared in my best of 2016 post, I recently made a move into a house where I have lots of space. Now that I have space, I’m very excited to be able to establish a large garden. Last year I joined a CSA because I knew I wouldn’t get a garden planted in time. I did get to grow a few plants, but this year I want to see the garden expand with lots of vegetables, including some spring and fall crops. One of my favorite veggies to grow is zucchini, which is the inspiration for today’s recipe. Zucchini corn and bean enchiladas are simple and easy, especially if you have zucchini growing in your garden. Continue reading →

Alright so, this is not a traditional way to use beets. However, I am not a traditional girl, either. At home, we have been loving quick Mexican inspired food this summer, and these black bean beet enchiladas were no different. This recipe uses the whole beet, the root and the greens! Check out the variations section if your beets didn’t come with the greens. Continue reading →

Enchiladas is one of those dishes that you can throw just about anything into, and it still comes out awesome. I filled these chard potato lentil enchiladas with extra produce from my CSA, and added some lentils for protein.

Lentil Pecan Tacos

Posted on July 8, 2016 | Leave a comment

Tacos are by far one of the most awesome foods out there. No, seriously. They can be prepared in so many ways, and for so many diet preferences. Plus, they are delicious! In my avocado tostadas post I raved about tacos, and compared tostadas to the awesomeness of a taco. I love tacos so much that I have a taco pizza recipe, and a taco stuffed shells recipe. This lentil pecan tacos recipe is a traditional taco recipe, made to mimic what meat-eaters call a classic taco. Continue reading →

Every spring there seems to be a desire for quick and easy meals. When the weather warms, spending your free hours in the kitchen is not the goal. Perhaps working near the stove or oven is no longer appealing because of the warming temperatures. Maybe you just want to get outside and enjoy the fresh air! Guacamole black bean burritos are quick, easily adapted, and addicting! Continue reading →

Cinco de Mayo Recipes

Cinco de Mayo

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I have completed a list of vegetarian Mexican food for you all to check out! I love holidays that inspire me to cook, and I love to cook mexican food. I have tried to keep this list very authentic. There are many awesome tex-mex recipes out there, but in celebration of Cinco de Mayo, I wanted to focus on true Mexican food. To me, authentic Mexican food is simple, using quality ingredients. It lacks american influence and instead reflects what was available for mexican families to cook with. Simple ingredients such as tomatoes and peppers, that could be grown in a garden, and corn that was ground into flour to make tortillas. Enjoy! Continue reading →

Quick Frijoles Negros_2

I am an obsessive meal planner. For most people, meal planning is a chore, something you don’t like to do. For me, it’s the opposite. Dreaming up recipes to use up ingredients, and finding recipes that overlap in ingredients is like a scavenger hunt. I look forward to my weekly meal planning time. Continue reading →
