Healthy Burritos
Hi everyone! So I'm back with another recipe this week. I bought this book and found this recipe inside. I tried the original recipe, but Isaac and I thought it was a bit too healthy for our liking. So I adapted the recipe to our tastes and made it just a tiny bit unhealthier than the original version. To be honest though, I think it's healthier than most burritos especially the ones from taco shops or Taco Bell. We tend to have leftover meat from this so I'll be doing another post this week to show you an easy lunch with the leftover meat!

Spicy Chicken Thai Noodles
Hello! Sorry it's been awhile since I've done a post. I think it may have only been a week, but that feels long for me. I want to at least get 2-3 posts up here a week, but I'm finding that I'm running out of my tried and true recipes. So now I guess I'm going to start posting recipes that I've only made a couple times, but are still delicious and made for two. I guess it doesn't matter as long as I still keep posting recipes! Anyways I found this recipe on Pinterest, of course. I have had my fair share of tries with Thai noodle recipes and they never tasted as good as the ones we get at our favorite Thai restaurants. So i followed the pin to this recipe and well it seemed like the easiest recipe for Thai noodles I've ever seen. I told myself if this doesn't work out, then I'm done with trying to make Thai noodles. Yay! It worked out and they are super yummmy!

Pepperoni Pizza Rolls
Ok so who doesn't love a good, greasy pizza every once in awhile? I know we definitely do. I originally found this recipe on Pinterest and followed it to this site. The recipe is suuuuuuuuuper easy and extremely tasty. The first time I made these I bought the wrong biscuits and we decided to add more pepperonis, but other than that I kept the recipe the same. I tried this to see if Isaac would eat these for lunch and sure enough he enjoyed them. They also reheat really easily and still taste just as good. I think this would make a great lunch or snack for kids and of course grown ups!

Chicken & Black Bean Taquitos
So I came across this really awesome site called onceamonthmom.com. I can't remember if I came across it on Pinterest or just through a Google search. Anyways this site is really dedicated to freezer cooking and making practically an entire month's worth of food in one big cooking day. I was interested in trying it out, but my husband and I like our food to taste fresh. We don't even like to eat leftovers. I still check the site out because most of their recipes you can still use, but just skip the whole freezing part. Well I came across this recipe and I knew I could use it and skip the freezing part. This has now become a favorite of my hubby's and mine. Ok so here's how you make these tasty Chicken & Black Bean Taquitos!

Chicken & Vegetable Stir-Fry
Yuuuummmmmmmmm! Chinese foooood! My husband is from Mexicali, Mexico where there is some amazing Chinese food. It's weird, but it's sooo true. We actually crave that Chinese food quite often. Anyways, I found this recipe and for us it's good. Trust me it does not compare to the Chinese food in Mexicali, but it's still tasty and makes a good dinner. I found this recipe here. I only changed what types of vegetables I put in the stir-fry. Ok so here's how to make it!

"Healthy" Baked Mozzarella Sticks
Hi! So I'm back with another recipe. I realized as I was making these that this is pretty similar to my last recipe. Oh well. Anyways, I normally don't make appetizers for us except if we have people over or if I'm taking something to a party. So we had people over last Friday night to watch a movie and hangout. We were planning on having pizza for dinner so I decided to make "Healthy" Baked Mozzarella Sticks. I found this recipe on skinnytaste.com and there are tons of other great recipes! Check it out! Obviously this recipe is a bit much for just two people, but you can always reduce the amounts to make just the right amount for your family.

Breaded Baked Chicken
Yay! It's my first recipe. Ok, so this recipe has seriously become a staple in our household. I have perfected this recipe to at least the flavors that my husband and I enjoy. Trust me it is very rare that I make a recipe for the first time and it comes out REALLY good. It usually takes me a couple times before I get it just right for our tastes. Anyways, I adapted my recipe from a recipe called Baked Chicken Cutlets in this book. The changes I made were pretty much the measurements of the ingredients. So this recipe is a simple breaded chicken recipe except it's baked instead of fried. I usually like to serve this with rice and corn, but you can serve it with whatever your family enjoys the most.
