One Pot or Crock Pot Loaded Quinoa Chili is the perfect healthy vegetarian chili that will satisfy even the pickiest meat eater!

Skinny Cheesy Enchilada Soup
Skinny Enchilada Soup is a simple recipe with tons of Mexican flavor and minimal calories! It's no secret that we eat a lot of soups over at our house. They are usually easy to make, the recipes can be doubled and frozen easily, they go good with most side dishes, and they are perfect for cold weather. 'Skinny' soups are also a great way to keep your calorie intake low (well, that and will power), because most healthy soups are fairly low calorie. I highly suggest doubling this recipe and freezing some for later, because it's delicious and makes an easy dinner, or quick ...
Southwestern Flatbreads
Mmmmmm flatbreads…aka Naan (in my house at least). Naan is so easy to make or buy (ha!). It is way cheaper to make it at home, and I have a great recipe! However, I find myself just lacking time lately, so picking up a couple Naan at the store is no big deal. They are equally as delicious, but do cost a little more. I love the Naan at Costco, which are like 10 breads for $4 or something crazy. You can also get hem at regular grocery stores, usually in the bakery sections – sometimes my store has 2 packs on sale for $2 each, or 2 pack for $4. Haven’t tried Naan? Well, you’re ...

Bean and Potato Enchiladas
People that know me, know that I LOVE Mexican food. I have never met an enchilada I didn't like, and am always trying to come up with different combinations. I think my love for Mexican food grew when I was in college. My freshman/sophomore years I worked during the summer in the best Mexican restaurant ever, Sagebrush Cantina, and got to know the food a little too well. Nachos, enchiladas, tortilla soup, sopapilla, flan, queso, flautas....I am drooling just thinking about it. The staff received a heavy discount on the food, which was prepared by a real ...
