Hawaiian BBQ Pita Pizzas

http://www.thegardengrazer.com/2012/04/hawaiian-pita-pizzas.html
You wouldn't think that something this easy to put together would taste that great but we really liked the combo of cilantro along with this.  Mark heated up some canned chicken from Costco in some BBQ sauce to add to them and it was even better. 

Bean Tostadas

We made our homemade refried beans and used them for our recipe.  Another good meatless meal.

Loaded Veggie and Black Bean Quesadillas

Another meatless, filling, yummy, good meal.

Quinoa Black Bean Burrito Bowls

This was such a refreshing recipe for quinoa.  I didn't even notice I was eating it because I loved the flavor of the other ingredients.  I actually got full off the meal too and it was healthy! We didn't top it with guacomole or salsa because we didn't have any. 

Slow Cooker Tomato Basil Parmesan Soup

I have tried a couple of different tomato soup recipes and this one is my favorite.  My complaint on this one is that it wasn't the easy throw it all in the crockpot recipe.  You have to make a roux 30 min before.  It probably would have been better too if I had used fresh basil instead of dried like I did.


Garlic Bread Pizza Crust

This crust tasted a lot like crazy bread.  I didn't let it rise at all. The only other change I made was use half wheat flour and half white flour using only 2 1/2 cups of flour instead of 3. This recipe definitely beat the one I have been using of Emilee's pizza recipe she got in junior high. :)

Easiest Brownies in the World

I made these last night and they were good.  I don't know why but I would rather use cocoa than a whole bag chocolate chips to make brownies so that was my only complaint.
