Cheesy Goodness

POST FROM SUNDAY NIGHT ~

Well, I was a little hungry despite my pretty big lunch, so Bill and I decided to make quesadillas… I borrowed the technique on the Gliding Calm blog and it was really great!!! I have made the quesadillas on the Foreman grill before, but making them on the stove was so much better just because it was so much crispier! I added about 1/4 cup of 2% Mexican cheese to a whole wheat (Ortega brand) tortilla, and about 1/2 cup of black beans… It was so good and reminded me exactly of this place called Moe’s that we love to go to… we had my own personal creation on the side that I came up with back in November… salsa brown rice… since all the prepackaged rices have so much sodium in them (as well as calories/fat), I came up with the idea (maybe someone else has too!) to just buy regular brown rice (we used Uncle Ben’s) and mix in a couple tablespoons of salsa… It is fantastic and you’d never know the different, honestly, you get more flavor, I think… It was a delicious dinner and hit the spot!
