    How We Nacho

    I Instagrammed my awesome Monday night dinner of a giant pan of these awesome easy weeknight vegan nachos. They were SO good and easy, I thought I should fling up a post about them! I only snapped one iPhone picture, but it turned out well enough so I figured I’d do a quickie post with…

  • Easy Weeknight Enchiladas

    Helloooo internet friends! I am feeling drained already this week! It may just be today due to my sleepless night last night. I vaguely remember I kept waking up to find Preston had somehow sent another pillow from his side of the bed over to my side and I flung it on the ground. I’m…

  • Weeknight Enchilada Lasagna

    Now I know I’ve been raving and raving about how excited I am for fall.  And that statement totally stands.  It’s way true. But I definitely took for granted how amazing the long daylight hours this summer were, so that anything I made for dinner I could last minute snap some great pictures of to…

  • Avocado, Chorizo & Black Bean Quesadillas

    Hi internet friends!  I hope you all had a fantastic holiday (and hopefully long) weekend.  I felt so spoiled to get a four-day weekend at my new job the first week, especially after taking so few days off the past year.  It. was. bliss.  Mostly I bummed around my apartment and a little bit around…

  • Mexican Chocolate Drizzled Popcorn

    I bring to you awesome dessert popcorn! Yay! Growing up, I had a friend whose mom would make us popcorn for dessert with melted white chocolate drizzled over it.  It was shockingly good.  I completely intend on figuring out how to make vegan white chocolate since it’s so hard to find.  But until that day…

  • Sweet Potato & Soy Chorizo Empanadas

    Happy National Empanada Day! It’s been WAY too long since I did a post for one of these super-authentic and totally-not-made-up holidays 😉 So that time has arrived. So have the empanadas!

  • Avocado-Cilantro Dressing & Tex-Mex Salad

    Happy holiday, lovelies!  I have a yummy salad recipe for you today that I’ve been procrastinating because I have absolutely nothing to create a good intro with.  It’s not inspired by an old favorite, I don’t have any interesting anecdote about how I created it.  It’s just a really good salad.  With an awesome creamy…

  • New Flora: Jackfruit + Taco Salad

    It has been so long since I’ve done a new flora post!  This one is really exciting.  Hopefully you’ve heard of jackfruit, but if not then I am excited to be the one to tell you! Jackfruit is often used as a shredded meat replacement because it naturally has that texture.  So today I’m sauteing…

  • Sweet Corn Tomalito

    Okay, this is one of those love-it-or-hate-it moments.  Personally, I love sweet corn tomalito.   What is sweet corn tomalito?  You know those really inauthentic (yet delicious) Mexican restaurants that seem to specialize only in the greasiest Mexican food and over-sized margaritas (I’m looking at you, Chevy’s & El Torito)?  You know that little scoop…

  • Leftover Makeover: Chili Cheese Quesadilla

    That’s right.  Chili in a quesadilla.    Delicious smoky leftover soy chorizo chili to be exact.
