Carne Asada

So I've always wanted to try making Carne Asada, but there are so many recipes out there, I didn't know which one would give me the most awesome flavor.

But I found it...

I loved everything listed, so I knew this was the one. 

Enjoy.

Green Chili Enchiladas

Hello Hello Everyone! So a few nights ago I was craving Mexican...obviously not authentic, but whatever. I've always pretty much sucked at enchiladas (kind of like my issues with Mac & Cheese), however, I think this recipe turned out pretty good!

Not pictured is a pack of skinless, boneless chicken breasts (They were thawing).

Ooey Gooey, cheesy goodness!

Enjoy!

Mexican Style Zucchini Boats

I can't tell you how much I love using zucchini. Especially in dinners as a substitute for noodles or as a veggie "filler". Cooked zucchini doesn't have a super strong taste, but I can add it to lots of dishes and get my veggies in without the taste taking over the dish.

Tonight I wanted to do zucchini boats. These are always yummy. But I love anything spicy so a Mexican flavor was a must.

Please note that a lot of my cooking is "by taste". I may put certain amounts in the ingredients lists, but you can add or subtract depending on your own taste.

*6 boats - serves 3-4

~ Ingredients ~



Along with a 9x13 pan I used the following:


  • 3 zucchini
  • 1 can rotel
  • 1 can non fat refried beans (realized that great northern beans would also be a great choice)
  • 1 pound beef (sorry, I didn't realize I was out of turkey which is what I was going to use)
  • 1 cup cheese
  • 1 6 ounce container of greek yogart
  • about 30 tortilla chips (crushed)
  • 1 packet of taco seasoning (not pictured)
  • salt and pepper
  • *1/2 tsp. ground cumin if you have it
