Rice and Bean Enchiladas

Rice and Bean Enchiladas / Bev Cooks

Now thiiiiiis I’d totally call a throw-together meal. Totally. Totes. (<-ew) I just realized no one says “totes” anymore. How terrific is that? Okay, this is completely vegetarian, so if you’d like to slip in some chicken or steak, absolutely fine. But as is like this, is magic in itself. Also I should tell that […]

Chicken Salsa Soup

Chicken Salsa Soup / Bev Cooks

Soup! On the second day of spring. IT IS STILL CHILLY, GUYS. I’m not yelling at you. Sometimes I speak like Owen Meany. Remember that book? A Prayer for Owen Meany? He’s this tiny dude that screams constantly in all caps? That’s me. So yeah, soup! CHICKEN SALSA SOUP. And I feel like you’re here […]

Mexican Fiesta Bowls

Mexican Fiesta Bowls / Bev Cooks

It’s not what you think. This isn’t a taco salad bowl. Or a burrito bowl. Not really even a Straw Hats bowl. (even though it has fritos in it so don’t get all loco on me.) It’s a MEXICAN FIESTA BOWL – a) because that’s what my mom calls it, and b) apparently I used […]

Easy Bean and Rice Burritos / Bev Cooks

Y’ALL READY FOR DIS. (du du du du du du du du du du du du du.) (ignore me.) Guess what! I’ve been so excited to tell you about this weird hack I came up with a few weeks ago. It’s a Mexican Rice hack. And it’s wild. And you know what, if you already […]

Classic Beef and Bean Chili with J.R. Watkins

Classic Beef and Bean Chili with J.R. Watkins / Bev Cooks

*This post is definitely in partnership with J.R. Watkins, but all honesty and total ramblings are my own. We coo?* YES. J.R. Watkins. As in, the hand soaps. (I’m not cooking with hand soap, by the way. Ha! Wait, am I?) Did you know that J.R. Watkins has a whole new line of gourmet seasonings […]

Slow Cooker Chicken and Bean Tostadas

Slow Cooker Chicken and Bean Tostadas / Bev Cooks

Tostada Tuesday! (shhhh.) Not only that, slow cooker tostadas. Slow cooker chicken and bean tostadas. Slow cooker chicken and pinto bean tostadas with fresh pico on top! Ugh. And the cheese? Chipotle cheddar. I give up now. This is one of those you-know-everything-will-work-out-in-life meals, because a) it’s a bunch of chicken and beans and corn […]

Slow Cooker Moroccan Pulled Pork

Slow Cooker Moroccan Pulled Pork / Bev Cooks

You don’t even want to know how long it took me to spell Moroccan right. Who rightly cares though because THIS DISH. Ahhhhhhh! It’s going to change you. As a person. Changed. Also, I’m having a serious talk with myself right now about the amount of all-caps abuse in the coming of this post. I […]

Five-Alarm Chili

fivealarm5

Apparently my mouth thinks it’s still winter. Isn’t it wonderful? So, have you ever had Five-Alarm Chili? Da-hudes. It’s HOT. But I like my face to rain, so I don’t mind. Thing is, Aaron keeps buying bags of corn chips. Like Fritos, ya know. The ones that you plunge into bean dip. He won’t stop. […]

Salsa Verde Chicken Soup

I know it’s hip to talk about the temperatures right now, but I just can’t do it. I just can’t. Especially because it’s going to be 96 freaking degrees this weekend and I want to punch it in the groin. But I’m not going to talk about it. I’m also not going to mention that […]

Roasted Vegetable and Pesto Minestrone

This soup looks like my neighborhood right now. Okay and get this. Normally I don’t gravitate towards certain fallish colors, likes the brown and yellow hues. Now, the burnt oranges, deep reds and dark purples? Totally obsessed with. But THIS YEAR? This year I’m loving it all. ALL OF IT. I’m like a loose lion […]
