Homemade Refried Beans

September 10, 2013 by Kristin 4 Comments

I don't know about you but it can be kind of gross opening a can of refried beans, plopping the beans into a pan and it staying in the form of the can. I decided, I wanted to try making my own since I had heard it was easy, I could control what went into it, and no more looking at beans in the shape ...

Chicken Caesar Salad w/ Crispy Garbanzo Beans

August 8, 2013 by Kristin Leave a Comment

A few nights ago, I was trying to figure out a quick dinner for my husband and I. My kids had an early dinner, so I was able to expand our options since it didn't need to be kid friendly. My kids are not big salad eaters, so I typically have to avoid adding salads to our dinners. I ended up whipping ...

Quinoa, Corn, and Black Bean Tacos

July 31, 2013 by Kristin Leave a Comment

As I have mentioned before, my family buys the big bag of Quinoa from Costco. We love to eat Quinoa whenever we can, so we go through lots of it. Last night, I made these tacos for the family. The kids ate these without tortillas, so more like a casserole. The hubby and I enjoyed these like we would ...

July 20, 2013 by Kristin 4 Comments

A few nights ago, I made this for dinner and we all loved it. The kids ate theirs as nachos, my hubby and I ate ours in a tortilla shell, and the next day, we ate it like a slice of casserole. Any way you choose to eat it, you will love it. It is packed full of flavor, veggies, and the many layers ...

Quinoa w/ Black Beans, Corn, and Feta

June 26, 2013 by Kristin 1 Comment

Believe it or not, I had never made Quinoa, never tasted it, etc. I had heard great things about it, but never bought any to try. I had mentioned my interest briefly to my husband one evening. He was in charge of the Costco run the next day and when he returned, he had bought a Costco sized bag of ...

Black Bean and Chicken Casserole

May 23, 2013 by Kristin 4 Comments

I made this dish a few nights ago and it was a huge hit with the family. I LOVE Zucchini, so I was excited to add some into it. My daughter however, quickly pointed out, "I do not like pickles in my dinner mama". Ha-ha, I finally got her to try one of them, and she too said she loves zucchini! It ...

Sweet Potato and Black Bean Burritos

April 1, 2013 by Kristin Leave a Comment

I have heard about a lot of families doing "Meatless Monday's". I have always tried to include some type of meat in all my dishes, but decided to venture out and try doing a few meals meat free. It has been quite fun, and allows for a lot of variety. My family loves sweet potato. In fact, when ...
