Peach + Goat Cheese Quesadilla w/ Avocado

Eeeeeeee!!!! I don't know what it is about me and food, but I get so excited to experiment with new recipes!



You too, right?




Don't lie, I know you do.


Today's recipe was inspired by my cheese craving, and that itch for a taste of something sweet and salty.


Peach + goat cheese? It was meant to be, y'all. 





Especially when you add in the crispy, buttery taste of some warm tortillas and smooth avocado!
Whew, chile!



Ingredients

4 small / medium flour tortillas
2 handfuls of goat cheese
2 whole sliced peaches
1 tbsp butter
1 avocado

Makes 2 Servings




On medium - low heat, add 1/2 tbsp of butter. (I try and use as little butter as possible to keep it less fatty.) 

When your butter has melted, add your first tortilla and top with goat cheese (be careful, goat cheese has a lot of flavor so only add one small handful per quesadilla).

Place your sliced peaches on top of the goat cheese and place the second tortilla on top.

Flip over once your first side is crisp to your liking. (I don't add extra butter here, you don't really need to, the tortilla will still have a nice flavor and won't stick). 


Cook until your second side is crisp and remove from heat. Repeat with second quesadilla.



Serve with fresh slices of avocado and dig in!



Enjoy!

Spicy Sweet Potato Burgers


Two veggie burgers in one day?  Yep! That's how I get down.










I was so stoked about those kale burgers, that i just had to let you in on the goodness of these sweet potato burgers that I threw down on yesterday!




I'm all about easy. Get in the kitchen, get my groove going and it's on!





Ingredients :

2 yams
2 avocados
tumeric
s+p
basil
chili powder
vanilla almond milk
breadcrumbs







Directions


Peel and boil the yams (covered), until soft. ( I never time these things, forgive me y'all-  stick a fork through the potato and it should slide out clean and easy when it's ready.)

Drain the water and transfer to a mixing bowl.

Use a fork, food processor or blender to mash your potatoes. They should have a slightly thick consistency.

Add a dash of s+p, turmeric, dried basil, chili powder, breadcrumbs, almond milk and stir.

Form into patties and cook in a skillet on medium heat  The patties should have a charred look when they're done.






Mmmhhmmm!mmmmhhmm!!! Tasty!



Serve with avocado slices on toasted, whole grain bread. Deeeeee-lish-US!

Enjoy!
