Now, I don’t take spanish. In fact, I haven’t taken Spanish since the 6th grade. A good 6 years. This does not stop me from loving some delicious mexican food though.
Taco Salad
Recipe:
- Romaine Lettuce
- Sweet Corn
- Broccoli (not normal, but a favorite veggie of mine)
- Tomatoes
- Carrots
- Spicy Refried Beans
Spicy Quesedilla
- 2 La Tortilla Wraps
- 1/2 Tomato thinly sliced
- Mozzarella Cheese
- Trader Joe’s Smooth & Creamy Spicy Hummus
P.S. A lot of you asked about the gums in my previous post. Go to Deb’s blog where she explains all about them.
Loving the addition of broccoli in the taco salad. It’s true they aren’t normally found in mexican recipes, but I just had some fantastic fajitas that included them, so good! And Oh so jealous about your TJ hummus. There isn’t a single one in northwest Kansas. Great blog girl! I can’t wait to read more!
Oh drooooollllllllllll!! I love that you combined hummus with cheese!! Reminds me of a crack wrap!! 🙂
P.S. I just bought xanthan gum yesterday, but sadly could not find guar gum 😦
mmmm…i love all things mexican! i think i could survive solely on it!

I could eat refried beans with every meal. They’re so good!
I’d never heard of quesadillas until I started blogging and reading other blogs, now I really enjoy them and making different variations.
Looks delicious! I love TJs spicy hummus- it’s the bombbbbbb without a doubt 🙂

wow, that taco salad looks good! I was reading your biography. How funny. When I was younger, I HATED peanut butter. Now I am addicted. Cashew butter is RIDICULOUSLY awesome. Have you tried macadamia nut butter? I use it instead of salad dressing on my salads.
I haven’t had refried beans in ages…your taco salad looks delicious! 😀
YUM! I love how colorful this salad is! Looks great!
Mexican food is a true love of mine. I grew up in Oklahoma and we have amazing hole in the wall Mexican restaurants. Since I moved to NC, I have to make it myself since they only have chain restaurants 😦 So sad!! Your Mexican dishes look fantastic! xoxo
Your pictures are beautiful! 🙂
That quesadilla looks great! I never make them enough, considering how easy (and tasty!) they are.
now all you need is a nice big margarita 🙂
