Looking for something to make for dinner? Or just as a side? Look no further for inspiration.
Many times I’m looking for something to make for breakfast or as a side for dinner or as a main course. I don’t necessarily know what I want to make. But I know that I want something in that general category!
This section is for when you just need a inspiration for a category of meal.
The other day I made Enchiladas w/ Pinto Beans, Mexican Rice, & Roasted Potatoes. I like to make the components for big dishes in larger quantities. That way I’ll have leftovers to make other things with throughout the week. I just made Pizza w/ Pinto […]
I’ve been in an enchiladas mood lately. The other day I made Enchiladas w/ Pinto Beans, Mexican Rice, & Roasted Potatoes. I tend to make recipes like this in fairly large quantities so that I have extra ingredients. It’s a lot of work to make […]
