Happy October

Hi there! It's October!

October is one of my favorite months! Pumpkin EVERYWHERE! (I love me some pumpkin!)

Unfortunately I am currently without pumpkin, which is very sad, but made something delicious, which is very yummy! It's also extremely easy to make

Easy Mexican Style Grilled Sammiches

Ingredients:
Refried Beans
Sliced Tomatoes
Daiya Cheddar
Corn Tortillas
Chili Flakes
Cumin
Salt and Pepper

Ingredients:
Mix the refried  beans with some chili flakes, cumin, salt and pepper to taste. Spread over a corn tortilla.
Top with a tomato, and then some Daiya. Add another corn tortilla.
Heat a skillet on med-high with some oil or cooking spray.
Once hot, add the sandwich. Cook, flipping every so often to prevent burning, until the cheese is melty and the sammich is hot throughout.
Eat and Enjoy!

This is also exceptionally good with Guacamole or avocados in it, as well as salsa, corn, and various other veggies added! It's super delicious!

My sad attempts at a video... and a delicious tequila based recipe!

I made a very bad video! I'm hoping my future videos will be much nicer... 

However! For those at home following along, here's the recipe in non-moving form:

Silly Drunk Soybeans

Ingredients:

1 medium onion, sliced into slivers

1/2 cup craisins soaking in 1/2 cup vegetable broth

1 box so soya chicken strips (or tofu, or seitan if you aren't GF)

2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into chunks

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 plantain, peeled and sliced (if you can't find a plantain, use a potato!)

1 cup slivered almonds

1 generous cup mushrooms, sliced

3-4 tbsp oil of your choice

1 cup carrots, chopped

1 cup vegetable broth

1 cup tequila (does not need to be good quality, haha)

Rice and Cilantro to garnish, if desired

Directions

Heat the oil in a pan on high. Add in the mushrooms, garlic, and onions, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until onions are nice and transluscent. 

Soak the soy strips in the broth, and set aside. 

In the pan, add the carrots, apples, almonds, and plantains. Mix well, and cook for 3-4 minutes. 

Turn the heat down to medium. Add in the craisins with their broth, the soy strips with their broth, and the tequila. Stir to mix everything together, cover, and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. 

Uncover, and turn heat to low. Cook for another 10 minutes or so, until liquid is pretty well absorbed. 

Serve with rice, and garnish with cilantro if desired!
