Hi, friends! Hope you’re all having a great week. It wasn’t a long weekend, but it sort of felt like one with some weekday fiesta-ing tacked on. Cinco de Mayo for the win! Our “long” weekend started with homemade buffalo chicken pizza (uhm, YUM). And ended with these yummy Ginger Beergaritas and piñata cake (it…
Roasted Red Pepper and Quinoa Enchiladas
Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike! Guess what day it is!? It’s….. Secret Recipe Club day! In case you forgot… Members of the Secret Recipe Club are assigned a blog each month. Who has who is a secret until reveal day (today!). The mission is to choose a recipe from the assigned blog, make it, and…
Cheesy Eggplant Parmesan {and some housekeeping}
Howdy, peeps! Please don’t hate me. I have gotten really, really bad at posting, huh? It’s partly because I’ve been super duper busy and seem to have zero time to cook OR blog (or breathe), and partly because my computer is slowly dying and is SO slow. I feel like I’ve time traveled to 1998….
Garden Vegetable Enchiladas
Enchiladas are a super versatile meal. You can stuff pretty much anything inside tortillas, cover them with sauce and cheese, and call it good! They’re also pretty easy to throw together, especially when you take the pre-made sauce shortcut (which is totally acceptable from time to time!). These particular enchiladas are even more versatile and…
Sweet Potato Pecan Burgers with Caramelized Onions
Sweet potatoes are a glorious thing. They’re vegetables. But they taste like candy. How can you go wrong with that? They’re 10 times better than regular potatoes, and also a lot more nutritious. Win! There are a lot of weird things about California, and one of them is sweet potatoes. I went to the supermarket…
Black Bean and Quinoa Enchiladas
Somehow, I’m still not sick of avocados. Or Mexican food. I pinned this recipe a while ago, but hadn’t made it since it’s vegetarian (minus the chicken stock, which could easily be replaced by veggie), and my meatatarian would probably be skeptical. But then one night I didn’t feel like going to the supermarket, didn’t…
Cheese Grits and Vegetables with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
It’s been a whirlwind of a week… … the most exciting part is that we found out we are moving to California!! In true Navy fashion, we found out Thursday that we have to move TOMORROW. I mean, four days is totally enough time to pack your whole house and try to figure out where…
Spicy Lentil and Kale Soup
Rarely do you find meat-free meals here at Flying on Jess Fuel, but today is an exception! A very, very delicious exception. And so hearty and filling that I promise you won’t even miss the meat. So how did I sneak a meat-free meal past that meatatarian hubby of mine, you ask? Well, I didn’t….
