Intro

Oh hi! So this is what's going to happen.. I'm starting this "What's for dinner tonight" Blog because I think it will be a great way to share my recipes and keep them to reference back to. Also, when I'm in a pickle.... Mmm pickles...ANYWAYS! When I can't think of anything to make I can get ideas from here.. If anyone ever has any ideas of what I should make leave me a comment! Let me know if you decide to make any of them as well!!

p.s It's not going to be a every night thing, simply because I work nights sometimes. So check back often. OFTEN!!!

What's In The Fridge Mexican Bean Chiloup


OOook...SO for tonight I had to make something quick and with things I had around the house... This is what I came up with... PS you can't screw up mexican flavors... It's just NOT possible..


So you'll need:


1 onion chopped

2 Cloves garlic grated

1 Zucchini

1/2 Bunch of Cilantro

1 Avacado

1 Lime (wedged)

3-4 Green onions

2 Handfulls of Spinach

1 can of each: Black eyed Peas, Black beans, Corn, Diced tomatoes, Jalapenos

1 Tbsp Cumin

1 Tbsp Chili Powder

1 1/2 C Vegi stock


Some sour cream and Shredded Cheese


Also, one package of tortillas or a bag of tortilla chips.


-Sautee the onion and garlic in olive oil (maybe like, 2 tbsp?) until onions are soft.

-Add cilantro, cumin and chili powder.

- Add everything else except: Green onions, avacado, lime, sour cream and cheese.

-Cook til zucchini is soft....i dunno... like....10 mins?


If you are going to make your own chips like im going to.. just cut up the tortillas into strips and put them on a cookie sheet, drizzle with olive oil and bake in a 350* oven til crispy... I dont know exactly how long that takes so just watch them..


THEN! Put the Chili/Soup into bowls and top with diced avacado, green onions, cheese, juice from a lime wedge and sour cream. Oh and the chips that you made too... EAT
