Southwestern Black Bean and Sweet Potato Soup

January 8, 2015 By Jana Tolman 2 Comments

One flavor combination I just cannot get enough of is Southwestern flavors paired with sweet potato. That smoky, spiciness found in Southwestern cuisine with the subtle sweetness of the sweet potato is just to die for. I’ve made black bean and sweet potato enchiladas before, and it occurred to me to tweak my favorite enchilada soup a bit to bring the sweet potato enchiladas into a soup form. The results were fantastic, and I think I have a new favorite soup. My toddler really digs it too, so that’s a plus.

I can't get enough of the smokey, sweet, spiciness of this Southwestern sweet potato and black bean soup!

Kale and I have a history of misunderstandings.

According to Southern lore, eating greens on New Year’s Day will bring you good luck in the new year… and maybe a bit extra cash, too.

Because New Year’s Day is happening this week and because I’m a sucker for traditions like this, I’ve made my favorite recipe for collard greens.

Spoiler alert: It’s super easy and crazy delicious! [Read more…]

Pumpkin Pie Greek Yogurt

December 16, 2014 By Nina B Leave a Comment

pumpkinpiegreekyogurtSo as you might have been able to tell from my previous posts here, I have a huge sweet tooth. That may even be an understatement. But if I gave into it all the time? It would not be healthy. So I have created sugar free, healthier alternatives to quell those sweet tooth cravings. This one is so simple, it’s stupid. There are four ingredients and it is all to taste. Also, it’s delicious.
