Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema

April 3, 2018 By Lane 13 Comments

Without further ado, here is the recipe for the Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema that I had promised you all! (and for extra yum, they contain butternut squash as well!)

Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos close up

I recently hosted one of my book clubs and decided the theme should be tacos. The book was “Americanah”, and if you’ve ever read this book you’re wondering right now where I got the idea for a taco theme.  Spoiler alert, my mind works in mysterious ways.  I can’t explain it.  I won’t even try. But for some reason, this book made me decide to create a recipe for Instant Pot Black Bean Tacos with Avocado Crema and I’m sure glad it did.  …

Good Food Reads

I just returned from a lovely vacation in the Arizona desert. It was filled with sunshine, wonderful family time, and (of course) some seriously good food. As I attempt to reset my diet – and (let’s be honest) reintroduce vegetables to my body! – I am craving all of that amazing southwest food we indulged in. So, with that being said you’ll have to forgive the slightly spicy bent to today’s Good Food Reads. What can I say? I’ve got big, bold flavors on the brain and I’m not feeling sad about it.

Like I mentioned, I’m attempting to dial back the indulgences this week while keeping all of that amazing flavor. I was so excited to find this recipe from Cooking Light for Chicken and Poblano Stew with Polenta. This recipe has chipotles in adobo, which is one of my favorite ingredients, but also roasted poblanos so the smoky heat should be amazing.

Breakfast Tacos Al Pastor, via Half Baked Harvest. Because there’s no reason that my current cravings should stop at breakfast! Also, they have pineapple in them. GENIUS.

And because I can’t stop, won’t stop: Carne Asada Burrito Bowls. This recipe does require a little advanced prep with the steak marinade, but they payoff should be worth it. I’m planning to double the recipe and bring some bowls to work this weekend!

You know I can’t resist a good sheet pan recipe. This week I really want to this recipe for Sheet Pan Roasted Jambalya. There is just something about those pictures full of wonderfully bright vegetables and fresh shrimp that I can’t stop thinking about!

Another batch prep for me this week: Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Soup. Even though things are starting to warm up here in Minnesota (hellooooo spring!), I’m still loving soup. This gorgeous soup from Dana at Minimalist Baker is vegan and gluten free. Plus, it uses coconut milk and dill for a little something extra. YUM.

As I noted earlier, I’m trying to up my vegetable game this week but I’m just not feeling my usual salads. I’m hoping to try these Sweet Chili Roasted Brussels Sprouts tonight. The mix of sweet chili and soy sauces is right up my alley!

Ok, admittedly, this Strawberry Almond Tea Cake recipe has absolutely nothing to do with my recent travels/cravings and everything to do with the arrival of strawberry season and the crazy gorgeous photos from Broma Bakery.

And finally, I give you: Mexican Chocolate Churro Rice Krispie Treats. Oh my heavens. Are these for real?!?!

I hope you’ve enjoyed this week’s Good Food Reads. I’m off to make some yummy food and dream of the warm dessert evenings. Send us your tips, tricks, and favorite recipes – we’d love to include them here on Good Food Reads!

Slow Cooker Beef Barbacoa

January 6, 2017 By Lane 14 Comments

Beef Barbacoa

I have a confession to make.  I have never tried Chipotle’s Beef Barbacoa.  Oh sure, I’ve been to Chipotle a million times.  But I’m a more of a carnitas kind of a girl.  So my family all thought it was a little odd when I came home with a chuck roast and announced I was going to make Slow Cooker Beef Barbacoa.  Oh ye of little faith!  All three of them actually got off of the couch to come and check it out as I pulled it out of the crock pot…the house smelled delicious!…

Fish Tacos with Chipotle Crema

July 29, 2016 By Lane 24 Comments

Fish Tacos with Chipotle Crema

I still remember my very first fish taco.  I had just moved from Minneapolis to Houston, TX and it was over 100 degrees outside.  I stumbled upon a little taqueria called Berryhill Baja Grill, and was introduced to the amazing flavor profile of the fish taco.  I immediately called my mom and she was not quite as excited about the idea of a fish taco, which was still very foreign in the year 2000 in the midwest.  I could sense her hesitation when I told her that it was at the top of my list for her next visit, until……
