Roasted Veggie Tacos with Avocado Cream

By JoshandMegs -

We've made these many, many times, and they are scrumdidliumptious. We could eat a ridiculous amount of them, but thankfully you don't need to feel guilty about it, like you would a cheesy, meaty taco. These are also really quick and easy to whip up.
The first photo shows them with rice, the second, with couscous. The couscous and the rice are not added to this recipe, but we just always add either of them to our tacos.

Roasted Veggie Tacos with Avocado Cream

Filling: (All diced)
Zucchini
Onion
Mushrooms
Bell Pepper
Tomato
Potato
Corn
Black beans
Garlic, minced
(These are what we use, generally, but you can use whatever you'd like. We pretty much just go through the fridge and throw anything in that sound delicious)
Seasonings: cumin, s&p, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika...again, whatever sounds good to you.

Avocado Cream:
1 avocado
1/3 c greek yogurt
1/4 c cilantro
1 tbsp lime juice
s&p, to season

Optional Toppings:
Feta cheese
Pico de gallo
Tomatillo dressing
Extra cilantro
Rice or Couscous for added filling, makes them go further! 

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare all your veggies, and toss in some olive oil (or your preference of oil), add seasonings, and mix until incorporated. Lay out evenly onto a pan, and roast until veggies are tender and lightly browning.

While veggies are roasting, whip together the avocado cream. Heat up your tortillas, and assemble away! 

Bon Appetite!

Josh got me to try some lentil soup at Corner Bakery. I was nervous, because I have not liked lentils in the past, but in the past few years I have grown to love many things I hadn't previously. And I liked it! So I immediately went on the hunt for a "copy cat" recipe, and though I have no idea if this is in fact the same, all three of us enjoyed it!  Lentil Vegetable Soup 2/3 c green lentils 1/3 c orange lentils (you can really use whatever lentils you wants) 1 lg onion, roughly chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 lg tomato, chopped 1-2 carrots, diced 1/2 c mushrooms 1/2 bunch spinach or 2-3 big leaves of kale, chopped fine 1/4 c corn 2-4 c vegetable/chicken broth S&P to taste Combine and wash all lentils and set aside.

Cover and let t...

Easy Shepherd's Pie

1 lb. ground beef 2 cups hot mashed potatoes 1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed 1 cup beef gravy PREHEAT oven to 375ºF. Brown meat in large skillet. Meanwhile, mix potatoes, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and the garlic until well blended. DRAIN meat. Return to skillet; stir in vegetables and gravy. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish; cover with potatoes and remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese. BAKE 20 min. or until heated through. Many of you know Jon and I are picky eaters. This is one recipe we came across in the Krafts Food magazine when we were searching for meals we'd both like. I have never had Shepherd's Pie before, but I liked it. I especially like that it is pretty quick and easy. It tastes good as leftovers too. We haven't mixed the cheese into the potatoes because we didn't really feel like it or added garlic just because we didn't have any, but I'm sure it'd still taste good.
