Mustard Crusted Potatoes (Potato Review)

I am in love with these little potatoes!  They are not only tasty but so good for you too!  These potatoes are already pre-washed and ready to cook.  No peeling or prep, just season and cook!  So nice for busy moms!

Tasteful Selections has eight varieties to choose from.

1. Ruby Sensation: A light fresh flavor with creamy flesh & tender skin
2. White Delights: Mellow with hints of sweet flavor and a firm, yet fine texture
3. Golden Temptation: A hint of butter flavor with a soft & creamy flesh and soft skin
4. Purple Passion: Slightly sweet, yet nutty with a plump texture and firm skin
5. Honey Gold: Buttery sweet flavor with velvety golden flesh and delicate skin
6. Sunrise Medley: A mix of sweet, nutty and fresh flavors with consistently soft texture
7. Gold Fingerlings: Golden flesh with a firm texture and rich buttery flavor
8. Ruby Fingerlings: Light red flesh with a creamy, moist flavor
9. Sunset Fingerlings: A bouquet of flavors and textures from buttery to nutty

With The holiday season here.  These would be a perfect potluck dish to bring to parties.  They will definitely be the dish everyone wants to try! I particularly like Sunrise Melody, looks so festive with three colors.  I would throw in an extra bag of Purple Passion as everyone wants to try a purple potato!  Yes the inside is purple!  Very fun and cool.

I tried this recipe from Tasteful Selections Website!  It was so yummy,  the kids gobbled them up and asked when I was going to make more!

Quick Quesadilla's

Quick Quesadilla's

Sometimes during the holiday you will find you are to busy to make a whole healthy meal.  That is why I always relies on this quick and healthy recipe!  It one of our family favorites!

I always use what ever I have in the fridge!  

• tomato diced
• green onion sliced
• soft cooked black beans(can substitute w/chickpea's, or leftover chicken or beef)
• frozen corn
• jalapeno pepper, diced real small, no seeds.(this gives it some kick...just enough that kids will still like it)
• shredded marble cheddar cheese

Arrange ingredients in separate bowl and let you family members load up there own tortilla's!  When they are done, fold in half, and bake till cheese is melted and tortilla crisp!

So simple! So yummy!  No extra seasoning required!

Eat it with a side of salad and Enjoy!

I hope you have fun with creating your own quesadilla!  
Let me know, what do you like in yours!

"RAW" Taco Salad

I found this yummy recipe here

http://www.fitmomsfitkidsclub.com/2010/08/daddy-does-it-raw-week-3-menu/

I am always looking for new yummy recipes and when I found this one I just had to try it out!  This was a hit with the family!  We all enjoyed it.  The kids liked the nut(meat) mixture scooped into lettuce leaves drizzled with the cashew cream.  I made up a huge garden salad and added the nut(meat) mixture to the top, also drizzled with cashew cream.  It was so filling and yummy!  Another "RAW" recipe our family will make again and again!

Taco Mixture - Process 1 cup of sunflower seeds (soaked for 1 hour), 1/2 cup of cashews, 1 clove of garlic, 2 tablespoons of onions, 2 tablespoons of cumin, 1 tablespoon of cajun seasoning, a dash of sea salt. 

Cashew Sour Cream 

In a food processor or high powered blender 1 cup cashews (soaked), 1 cup water, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder.  Blend until the ingredients are a thick and smooth cream (add more water if needed) it should look like sour cream.
