Mexican Mess

I know, I know. It's been 14 years since I've posted. But.... I made something last night and I couldn't stop mouthgasming, so I decided I needed to share this recipe. It's pretty similar to one I already have on here- but so so so so good. And so so so good for you, just like an actual orgasm.

I live alone and eat by myself because I'm an independent woman who don't need no man, so this recipe will serve one really hungry person, which I always am, or maybe 2 people. I don't know- I tried to save half for a scramble this morning and then I laughed at that thought as I scraped the bottom of the pan to get the last morsel into my gigantic mouth. So double the recipe just to have leftovers or something to eat when you wake up hungry at 2am.

Ingredients:
1 carrot- chopped
1/2 small onion- diced
1/2 zuchinni- sliced into half moons
1/2 bell pepper- any color (don't be a racist)- sliced
2 cups kale, chopped 
1/2 cup cooked quinoa or black beans
1 wedge laughing cow cheese, chipotle and queso flavor
1 small red potato
4 tbls salsa
1 tbls cumin
1 tsp chili powder
salt & pepper and salt 'n peppa's 'push it'
2 tbls evoo

Pre-heat your oven to 450. Do it. Now. Please don't argue with me. Then, throw all the vegetables onto a pan and toss with evoo, salt, pepper, cumin and chili powder. Spread them out so they cook evenly and because spreading them out sounds dirty. Roast for about 12 minutes, then flip them around to show them who's boss, and roast for another 8 minutes or so until they're nice and golden. Meanwhile, take the chopped kale and put in a pan, add a tiny bit of water, cover, and steam on medium high until nice and wilted. Season with salt and pepa. Then, once the veggies are done, mix them into the pan with the kale and add your cooked quinoa. Pour the salsa on top, and mix them around while you sing. Singing makes everything better. Then, add the wedge of the laughing cow cheese, stir it all around until it's nice and melted.. look at what you just made, high five your dog (or yourself), and try and get the food to the plate before you finish it. It's hard, I know. (that's what she said. hehehehe).


Enjoy!
