Chopping, Slicing, and Dicing

Getting better at chopping, slicing, and dicing!

Burrito Bowl

Homemade burrito bowl. ((I'm comin' for you, Chipotle.))

Last of the refried beans (finally), plus some left over corn, and half a potato latke from Whole Foods. ((Bit of a clean-out-the-fridge kind of breakfast platter, but a breakfast platter nonetheless!))

Breakfast

Avocado Heart

Why NOT a heart carved out of an avocado? Hmmm?

Meal Preps

Burrito Bowl Starter

((More! Fucking! Beans!)) I decided to make a little burrito bowl starter (...which worked) ((HOORAY!!!)).

Not Breakfast

Meatloaf And Microgreens

Honor thy meatloaf and microgreens.

Meal Preps

Turkey Meatloaf With Veggies

Turkey meatloaf meal prep with LOTS of veggies: peas, broccoli, and green beans (from frozen, from Trader Joe's); potatoes, peppers, and onions (from frozen, from Trader Joe's); corn, carrots, broccoli, and edamame (from frozen, from Whole Foods). ((See, that wasn't so hard.))

Not Breakfast

BBQ Chicken Pizza

Here is the last of the BBQ chicken I made, on an American Flatbread Pizza, with Kite Hill's (vegan) cream cheese (in chive flavor), with red onions, spinach, tomatoes, and chives. ((...and you can too.))

Breakfast

Egg Sandwich

One step away from an egg sandwich; two steps away from egg porn.

Not Breakfast

Fiesta de Tacos

Una fiesta de tacos (con pollo) ((from my BBQ sauce challenge)) ((...my challenge de BBQ sauce)). ((Ridiculous.))

Breakfast

Cauliflowerini

The people over at the Whole Foods hot bar think cauliflowerini is a real thing, so I tried it. ((It should be of no surprise I put it on a breakfast platter.))

Learning To Cook

Black Bean Tacos

Very recently, I would have told you I don't like beans; I order my burritos without beans; I order everything without beans -- I don't like beans. But then...

Refried Beans

Congratulations! You're the next contestant on "What Melissa Make?"

Breakfast

Papusa

I tried a papusa. If you don't know what that is, all you really need to know is there's cheese in the middle.

Meal Preps

Meal Prepped Bean Burgers

You better believe I meal prepped (the shit out of) those black bean burgers (with some sautéed mushrooms and onions, roasted potatoes, and steamed broccoli). Protein! Veggie! Carb!
