Quesadilla Pie
If you are looking for 5 layers of quesadilla goodness or a meal inspired by Tex-Mex flavors, I have just the thing! It’s called Quesadilla Pie. It’s a savory dish comprised of 5 layers of tortillas with all the fillings. When I asked Andrew to describe it, he said “it’s good. It’s really good”, then proceeded to keep eating so that was all I got out of him 😊 It’s easy to make and very mild to accommodate any palette. I wouldn’t consider it a spicy dish, but you can customize it to spice it up or spice it down. The recipe can be found here. I suggest using a springform pan to make this recipe. If you don’t have one, you can use a pie pan or another round baking dish, but I think the springform pan helps to cut even slices and remove the slices without losing the filling. A link to the pan I used can be … Continue reading

Trash Can Chicken Nachos
Trash Can Nachos are a fun way to prepare and serve nachos. The nachos are stacked in a cylinder-shaped metal container and baked until all ingredients are heated through or melted. They are then inverted onto a serving platter and served in a stack. Trash Can Nachos are easy to make, customizable, and delicious. They were originally made famous by Guy Fieri and the Food Network. The recipe I want to share with you today is for Trash Can Chicken Nachos. I will admit this recipe was trial and error for me. I wasn’t sure how the nachos would bake, if they would hold their shape when removed from the can, etc. And I didn’t really have a recipe to follow. I simply used our favorite nacho toppings and hoped for the best! The result was pretty amazing. The recipe can be found here. You will need a metal can … Continue reading

Breakfast Enchiladas
Breakfast Enchiladas are a great way to start your day! Enchiladas are tortillas that are filled with various ingredients, rolled up, covered with sauce, and baked to perfection. For my Breakfast Enchiladas, I’m swapping a typical enchilada sauce for whisked eggs, and filling the inside with cheese and diced ham. These Breakfast Enchiladas can be customized to meet your taste preferences. I used diced ham, but you could use bacon or sausage. I used white onion, but you could substitute with bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, etc. Really make these your own and use the recipe below as a guide for quantities! Another plus side of this recipe is you can make the Breakfast Enchiladas the day before and bake when you are ready. You can also make them the morning of…. like really early the morning you plan to bake if you are an early riser. You want the dish … Continue reading

Tasty Tostadas
If you need a fun new dinner idea, are looking for an appetizer for a party, or simply want to have Mexican night at home, Tostadas are the way to go! They are very versatile yet simple and easy to make. Tostada is the Spanish word for toasted, which fits the description perfectly, because a toasted (or deep fried) tortilla is the base of the dish. You then top the tortilla with beans, cheese, meat, lettuce, fruit, and other toppings. Basically, you want to pile the ingredients high and dig in…. these are meant to be messy! One of my favorite Tostada recipes is for BBQ Chicken Tostadas. These are served warm and I think that’s part of the appeal for me. I love the combination of melted cheese, tender chicken, and tangy BBQ sauce in every bite. They are also fairly light so you will be satisfied without feeling … Continue reading

The chicken and veggies are tender, and you can add any toppings of your choosing. Even better, everything cooks on the same pan for easy cleanup! The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the peppers, onion, and chicken into strips. Set aside. Feel free to use whichever color pepper or onion you like. I like the contrast of red and green peppers in my fajitas. I also prefer the flavor of white onions, so that’s what I use, but you can make this dish with whatever you like to meet your tastes. In a small mixing bowl, combine the chili powder, … Continue reading
