Jul 17, 2020 · 2 Comments

Beat the heat with these gorgeous and refreshing Watermelon Mint Frozen Margaritas! Frozen watermelon is blended with tequila, lime juice, and a fresh mint syrup for a fun cocktail.

Happy Friday my beautiful friends! I don't know about where y'all live, but here in Texas it has been H-O-T hot!! Like, disgustingly so. I don't like to spend any time outside if I can help it cause it's just not enjoyable in the least. The small silver lining to this heat wave, however, is that we get to be creative with how we cool off and stay hydrated. And these gorgeous Watermelon Mint Frozen Margaritas are totally at the top of my list of beverages of choice! Refreshing, delicious, and oh-so-pretty. I have a feeling they will become your favorite too!

This simple, savory Creamy Black Bean Soup is packed with healthy veggies and spices perfect to warm you up from the inside out! Top it with crispy tortilla strips, avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime for the perfect finishing touch.

Hi frans and happy Tuesday! I am so pumped to be sharing this scrumptious recipe for Creamy Vegan Black Bean Soup today! I have built up quite the repertoire of soup over the years, from creamy tomato soup, to minestrone, broccoli cheese soup, and most recently Thai carrot soup! Black bean soup was one that had somehow never really landed on my radar, as there are always more exciting options on a Tex-Mex menu than the infamous black bean soup. However, this week we are reaching record cold temps and I figured a thick, creamy, spicy bowl of soup would hit the spot!

5-ingredient white queso

Feb 15, 2016 · 135 Comments

This 5 Ingredient White Queso is SO simple and easy to make, and requires NO Velveeta! Just throw all the ingredients together, melt over low heat, and you'll be rewarded with queso that's perfect for dipping.

Hello, my friends! I am sharing some insanely easy, delicious white queso with y'all today! I was coerced into bringing queso to work by my colleagues, and I figured why not blog the recipe while I was at it? They requested restaurant style cheesy dip, and that's what I tried to accomplish here! This 5-ingredient wonder is so simple to make, and the best part? NO Velveeta! To each his own, but I just can't stomach that stuff. Anything that is half chemicals and is somehow shelf stable cheese "product" should probably not be consumed. But I digress. Queso! Made with real food! Let's do it.

vegetarian nachos with homemade baked chips

May 14, 2014 · 4 Comments

I made you nachos... vegetarian nachos! And I even made the chips myself. Sorta. These turned out to be some of my favorite nachos that I've ever had! I used HEB's Mixla Tortillas, which are made with a blend of flour and corn, cut them into triangles, and baked them. Because these were made with actual corn tortillas, versus store-bought extra-thin corn chips, they were sturdier and were able to hold up loads of toppings without getting soggy or breaking! And besides, I don't think there is anything better than warm, salty, fresh-out-the-oven tortilla chips. If you're the observant kind {and I'm sure you are}, you might have noticed I have some stuff that looks like meat in my nachos. But didn't I say these are vegetarian? Well, I have a secret....
