What’s on my doorstep?
My friend told me I had a package but I wasnt expecting anything. What could it be ??
First my cats have to inspect it , i open it up and it’s a nice surprise from Frito Lay
A colorful condiment tray from Pottery Barn, Little Chalkboards, Tostitos Scoops, & Classic Lay Chips . Thanks Frito Lay!
They also sent me 2 gluten free recipes
Tortilla crusted chicken w/avocado cilantro lime sauce & tostitos simply natural yellow corn tortilla chips stuffing. Can’t wait to try them out and use my cute dishes!
What’s cookin- vegetarian
So I’ve been finding all these recipes from pinterest and I thought this one was so delish. It is also very filling.
What do you need :
3 cups of black beans
1 yellow pepper, diced into small pieces
1 small diced onion
2 garlic cloves minced
large tomato, diced
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
3 tablespoons all purpose unbleached flour
2 eggs, room temperature
Sea salt and black pepper
Oil for frying- I used olive oil.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl & season with salt & pepper.
In a large skillet add oil on medium heat
When hot add tablespoons of bean mixture, I did heaping tablespoons
Cook on each side for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
Place fritters on paper towel.
I made 20-27 of them >> Lunch tomorrow for me 🙂
Cilantro Dipping Sauce:
1/2 Greek yogurt
1 small garlic clove, crushed
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon sugar
Sea salt and black pepper
Blend all the ingredients for a smooth consistency. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
Options : Add 1/2 small green chili, seeded and finely chopped to sauce
Instead of Greek yogurt you can use sour cream.
Lentil tacos– never know the difference
Ingredients
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt, to taste
1 cup dried brown lentils, rinsed well
taco seasoning
2 and 1/2 cups vegetable broth
Garnishes I used:
Guacamole, cucumber, lettuce, olives, vegan cheese
Directions:
In saute pan add oil over medium heat
Add onion, garlic, salt and cook until onion is soft
Add lentils & taco seasoning, mix well.
Stir in vegetable broth.
Reduce heat, cover. Check lentils and stir occasionally to avoid burning for about 20-25 minutes.
Remove cover, allow to thicken about 7 minutes
Transfer to bowl and use a potato masher to gently mash to your desired consistency.
Now make your taco! Use hard shells or wraps 🙂

Veggie turkey burgers on the grill
First , I needed to get gas. My friend Shawn wanted to make sure it was secure. When I got in the car and saw this I couldn’t stop laughing.
My burger mixture :: ground turkey , shredded carrot, red onion , garlic, spinach , zucchini ( just started adding this. I think it makes it nice and juicy) and seasoning salt, pepper, ect. On the grill it went with corn on the cob, zucchini, mushrooms . I also made baked red potato fries
– I sometimes put mushrooms in the burger as well
