Vegan Tostadas!


FEBRUARY 19, 2014

Hi Guys!

I'm baaaack!!

I'm doing RAW-SOME!! 😀

So...I have been helping a LOT of people eat healthier and have had many requests to share/blog what I make for my low fat vegan Familia!

So this is my FIRST recipe I am going to share with the world! 😀

If you're like most Americans you LOVE Mexican food but not the often unhealthy ingredients found in them in conventional venues...so there no place like HOME to eat the best meals on the planet!!

Tonight they're eating TOSTADAS!!



The first thing I make is the 
QUINOA BLACK BEAN & CORN 


In a medium pan sauté in about 1/2-1 c. of water until translucent:
1 onion
3 cloves of garlic 
Then add:
1 c. Uncooked quinoa
2 c. Water mixed with Gayelord Hausers's Vegetable Broth 
1 t. Ground Cumin
Cayenne Pepper, Salt & Pepper (optional & to taste)


Bring to a boil then turn down & simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Then add: 
1/2 c. Chopped fresh organic cilantro
1 package of frozen organic corn


1 can drained & rinsed organic black beans


Mix. Cover. Remove from heat until ready to eat.

While this is simmering for those 20 minutes I start to toast the Sprouted Corn Tortillas on the griddle until desired firmness.




While that's toasting I start 
on the

GUACAMOLE 

3 Avocados, mashed
 Handful of cilantro, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 jalapeño, diced
fresh squeezed lime
sea salt (optional) to taste 




Then the PICO DE GALLO
7 Organic tomatoes
1/2 red onion, chopped
Handful of cilantro, chopped
1/4 of a jalapeño, diced
fresh squeezed lime 
sea salt (optional)



I like to make the beans from scratch but when I haven't made the time I will use canned..but FRESH is ALWAYS best!






Buffet style!


Happy children...


Happy husband...


And Happy Mom mixed up the cabbage, guac & pico for my meal! ❤️


😃 Knowing that what I am making for them is nourishing them with goodness and much-betterness!

Hope you enjoy this as much as we do
& that you will share this blog & these meals with your family & friends! 

They are made with ❤️LOVE❤️ which is always the #1 ingredient!

Do EVERYTHING with ❤️!

XOXO,

❤️RMM
