Let's keep the quinoa train going! I made this salad yesterday. DELICIOUS, super quick, and easy! It is packed full of veggies and chickpeas for protein. Here's the recipe: https://www.organizeyourselfskinny.com/2016/01/12/7-minute-quinoa-power-salad/ I did not add cucumbers because I forgot they were on my grocery list this week, oops. I also threw the chickpeas into the oven for about 25 mins at 400 degrees with some olive oil and cumin. I also increased the quinoa because why not? This salad is filling, nutritious, and did I mention easy?! Happy eating!

Ok, so I am going to kick this off with probably my favorite recipe I have started making over the last few months. I LOVE mexican food. If I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner I totally would. I mean who can turn down a good bowl of chips and salsa, guac, and margaritas? No one. If they tell you they can they're a liar and should not be trusted.
So here is the recipe I am loving for sweet potato black bean toastadas:

I know what you are thinking...really no meat? Trust me you don't even need it. The most time consuming part of this recipe is prepping the sweet potatoes. Also time saving tip, if you live near a Whole Foods grab some of their prepared pico. I now sadly do not live close to a Whole Foods so I just used fresh tomato and cilantro on the toastadas below. I love this recipe because it is easy and it tastes great when you first eat it and later when you have leftovers!
Happy eating!
