Are you sick of tacos? If yes, then who are you and do you really exist? Let me rephrase the question. Are you a taco fanatic but you’re looking for something a little different? If no, then carry on with life as you know it. If yes, then tostadas are where it’s at. Instead of using a hard taco shell or a soft tortilla, you’re using a baked tortilla here, otherwise known as a toasted tortilla. Get it? Tostada. Except if you are like me then you’ll accidentally be calling these Tostitos simply because the two words sound similar. After having called them a “tostito” …

One Pot Burrito Bowls
I swear it was Friday like five minutes ago. Here we are and it’s Monday already. Does anyone have a job where Mondays are a good day of the week? I want to know… because I might need to re-think my day job options. 😉 Calling all my friends and family who request easy and quick meals that are kid friendly! You’ve hit the jackpot today because this meal fits the bill. You throw all the ingredients into one pot. I don’t think it can get easier than that. It will take less than 30 minutes to whip up and that’s pretty quick if …
Chipotle Apple Sweet Potato Salad
Doesn’t this sound like the most perfect salad for Fall?! I have a confession to make. I sort of a have a blog crush on Love and Lemons. I’m obsessed with their photography and they have amazing recipes, like this one. Chipotle… apple… sweet potato… salad… I love every word of that. I could go all Guy Fieri on you and get into the nity gritty of why everything just works here, but who has that kind of time? 😉 Trust me when I say that this plate is an explosion of awesomeness. Can you believe it’s October already? September …
Grilled Eggplant and Zucchini Quinoa
No football food for you. I have this thing… this unintentional need to play into clichés. For example, if my husband and I are watching a game, then I like to eat game food, even if it’s just the two of us at home in our PJs. It can totally be a low key thing like frozen pizza from the store and a bottle of Octoberfest. It can even be healthy snacks that I play off as “healthy football food” (but let’s be real, healthy and football food is not really a thing). I must be slipping because this past …
Chicken Fajita Pasta
Has the flavor of chicken changed? I had no issues eating chicken when I was a kid. My dad was (and still is) picky about his chicken, claiming some chicken dishes tasted “too chicken-y.” My sisters and I used to think that my dad was weird for thinking that. Karma is a kicker. A few years ago, I was eating some kind of chicken dish and said (to myself or whoever was with me), “Wow, does this chicken taste chicken-y or what?” (My husband piped up and said it was him that was there to hear that and that he …
