Full on Falafel

Since my last journey to the Hippie Grocery Store aka Whole Foods, which I am not mocking only lamenting that we don't have one close, I bought some falafel mix that I have been hungry for ever since so we decided to have some falafels and couscous for dinner last night.

1 pkg falafel mix, prepared (I bake mine instead of frying, just to be a little healthier)
lettuce
tomato
crumbled feta
dressing of your choice or hummus
pita bread, split
Couscous mix, prepared

 Prepare couscous, I usually put mine in the rice cooker. Prepare falafel mix with water and let sit about 10 minutes. Form balls and bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes on each side. Stuff with lettuce, tomato, falafels, feta and dressing or hummus. Serve with couscous and top with smoked paprika 
if you are that kind of girl and I am!

Crocktober-Simple Veggie Chili

It's October, cooler weather should be on it's way, but it's still over 80 degrees. But that is not going to stop me from pulling out the crockpot and making chili. What makes it even better is that it is only 4 ingredients. 1 pkg veggie crumbles (like the kind by morningstar farms) 1 can diced tomatoes 1 can kidney beans 1 pkt chili seasoning Mix all in crockpot and cook on high for two hours and 1 hour on low. Serve with your fave chili toppings.

A simple kind of Pizza

Hot gooey cheese, burning the roof of your mouth sauce, and crunchy, crusty bread. Yum! It started with a pizza in fifth grade home economics. The recipe was French Bread Pizza, the ingredients were simple, bread, sauce, cheese, and meat. But that was all it took, my culinary spark was lit. I went home and wanted to give my school recipe a try. The actual ingredients were French bread probably from the local grocery store's bakery. The remaining ingredients were less than wholesome, a can of salty tomato sauce, a block of mozzarella you had to shred yourself, and greasy pre-sliced pepperoni you simply had to taste. Hopefully you managed to save enough for the pizza. And Voila, I felt just like a chef! Did it matter that the only chef I knew was Chef Boyardee? Of course not, because I could make my own food. And even got to use the oven much to my mother's disapproval (for fear I would burn the house down). I didn't care because even at that moment I was a better c

Doritos Pumpkin cheese ball

1 Block cream cheese ½ C salsa (pace salsa works best) 2-3 C crushed nacho doritos Bell pepper stem Small round bowl Press and seal wrap Non-stick spray Mix with an electric mixer the cream cheese and salsa. I mix it well and until it is quite creamy/fluffy. Place a piece of press and seal over a small bowl and spray with nonstick spray. Put in cream cheese and salsa mixture and wrap up. Let chill overnight or at least 2 hours. When ready to serve unwrap ball and roll in crushed doritos and top with a bell pepper stem. I like to serve it with blue tortilla chips for Halloween, this is also great for Thanksgiving.
