What We Tried : Taco Casserole (vegetarian)
by 13 Comments
My family adores Mexican food, but my small repertoire of tacos, burritos and nachos were getting a little tiring. After a little searching I ran across this recipe for Taco Casserole. I’ve made this twice now and most of us love it. Why do I say “most of us”? My oldest son detests beans and gooey cheese. Ethan picks through to eat the beans and chips. The rest of us mix in some sour cream and maybe some guacamole and devour it. Taco Casserole … [Read more...]
What We Tried : Vegetarian Lasagna Recipe
by 10 Comments
We tried this yummy recipe this week and had mixed reactions. The younger generally don’t like any type of lasagna. Ethan pushed the noodles aside and ate the inside. Emma took one bite and refused. Josh doesn’t like cheese, so he gagged a few bites down and walked away. Kaytlin, myself and my husband enjoy lasagna and cheese… and loved this recipe. The only thing I would change is to maybe add some garlic and maybe some mushrooms. … [Read more...]
What We Tried: Vegetarian Paella Recipe
by 5 Comments
This week I was looking for something simple, preferably one pan and that everyone would like. I haven’t had paella since I was a child and that particular version was very spicy and contained shrimp. Everyone loved this dish. I was warning them that it might be a bit spicy… it wasn’t spicy at all. The kids were asking to add soy sauce, but we talked them into trying it without and they ended up eating two bowls.

With the first day of Autumn upon us, my taste buds have been having daydreams about pumpkin spice mochas. After some digging online I found a recipe I had to try. I followed this recipe and added the spices directly to my coffee as instructed, but I could still taste the powder a bit. I am posting the recipe as written, and then I will tell you what I did this morning that was YUMMY. Pumpkin Pie … [Read more...]
What We Tried: Baked Falafel Sandwich Recipe (Vegetarian)
by 10 Comments
I ran across this recipe one day and asked my husband if he knew what a falafel was. Neither one of us knew, but he had “heard” about falafels and thought they were supposed to be super yummy. This particular recipe does not call for them to be deep fried, which makes these falafels a little more diet-friendly than traditional ones. You can also make them even easier on the waistline by using the Sensa weight loss system! How did the family … [Read more...]
