Avocado Chapati (Indian Bread)
Avocado is known as Butterfruit in India. Simple and quick chapati (roti – round flat bread) recipe enhanced with use of avocados. Avocados are not easily available in India, hence this very heart health ingredient is seldom used in Indian recipes. Avocados are loaded with heart healthy fats, which are good for controlling baad cholesterol. In this recipe mashed avocados are added to the flour during the kneading process. In this manner, rotis get a unique avocado flavor and all the fat from avocado make them super soft. So this is a great way to add avocados to your family’s daily diet without any extra effort.Medium avocados are recommended for this recipe. A medium avocado averages about 5 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.


Flat Indian Bread: Chapati
At first I could only make tough, not very good chapatis. But by adding more water, kneading the dough well, and letting it rest, I was able to make tender and delicious ones.The amount of water indicated is a guideline only. Please adjust the amount depending on the dough. If the dough is too hard, the chapatis will be hard and dry and not very good. Even if the dough seems too soft, it will improve after resting it, so don't worry. Recipe by hinata

Tasty Taco Lentils
This recipe is modified from one I saw on Allrecipes.com. It turned out too runny to work well burrito style so I served it with tortilla chips and cheese quesadillas. Of course, you could serve it in taco shells with all the fixings, I just didn't have any on hand. I use the split red lentils from Trader Joe's because the cook time is so much faster, but you could use any kind of lentils you want just follow the cooking directions for the type you buy.

Mini salad bar using leftover lettuce from taco night
For some reason I always have leftover lettuce whether it’s tacos or burgers , and i don’t like to waste anything so this is what i did with it. I simply just used whatever lunchmeat i had on hand and whatever fruits i had, was luckily enough to have eggs at the time so i added hard boiled eggs. Great fridge clean out idea. This got me 3-4 salads that we used for lunches for the week, my kids loved the idea of picking out their own topping like at a buffet.This now has become my favorite way to store and make salads.

Homemade Curry Bread
I took a recipe that I learned in a cooking class and arranged it with easier ingredient amounts and steps. Paired with steam buns, it was aimed at stay-at-home moms who have their hands full raising their children.I wanted to try coming up with a recipe for those of you without ovens or bread makers but still wanted to try making a nice side dish It's simple and delicious so please give it a try.Make sure to use fresh vegetable oil and fresh bread crumbs. Leftover breadcrumbs from frying the first time can burn, so please make sure to clean the oil out before frying the second set of bread.You can use cooled leftover curry from the day before as filling .If you refrigerate the onions after buying them, you won't cry when you cut them. Try it out! You won't need swimming goggles. For 8. Recipe by Pokuchan

Homemade Taco Seasoning - Big Batch For Storing
In the past year, I've had to make some big changes to how I eat, due to health reasons. Cutting out a lot of processed foods and reducing sodium intake has really helped, but I've also had to find new ways to make meals we enjoy often...like tacos. Ultimately, I like doing this more than buying the seasoning packets, because it's healthier for everyone, tastier because we can customize it and ultimately it's cheaper, since these are all spices I already keep around. This mixture is also great to have on hand rather than mixing up a seasoning for every taco meal. I store mine in a pint sized mason jar. Feel free to cut this recipe in half if you don't use taco seasoning all that often. It can be stored for up to 1 year.

Taco Salad Bake
When I was little, and dad was in the army, sometimes we would have to wait for our housing on post. While we waited for housing, we would stay in our camper at the nearest KOA campground. Those were some of my fondest memories of growing up. I’m the 4th of 5 kids. My mom had a lot of mouths to feed and one of my FAVORITE things she would make us was taco salad. The delicious smells coming from that camper are still very vivid with me. Here’s a version of that taco salad in a casserole.#heirloom

Mike's Super Simple Taco & Tostada Tips
Don't you hate it when you spend hours upon hours preparing delectable, sophisticated and detailed dishes. But, you're somehow mostly appreciated for those meals that literally take you less than ten minutes to prepare? You know - those idiot proof recipes of yours? Well, this is certainly one of mine.Hopefully I'm not sounding arrogant but this is one of my most [americanized] requested dishes by my family, students and neighbors. They asked me to post. So, here goes my incredibly simple, foolproof Taco recipe with tips.Just know that these Tacos and Tostadas are all about the options. From the meats, to the fresh chilled veggies, to the homemade salsas.Do excuse the overly detailed directions and photos. Seven overly enthusiastic eight year olds both pictured and posted them for me last night. After all, it was Taco Tuesday here in the O'Brien Shire!Anyway, in the end, I suppose fresh, chilly, crisp, homemade and firm is what this dish is all about. Enjoy!

Healthy Taco Rice
Add some bamboo shoots for their crunchy texture, and drain off the fat that comes out of the meat to make this dish healthy.If you don't want to bother making the meat sauce, just use canned meat sauce and add some herbs, spices and a can of tomato and cook it down.As for the seasoning, as long as you taste as you adjust, it will turn out pretty well even if you don't measure properly - that's the good thing about taco rice.

Queso Taco Pasta Bake
I came across this recipe on Pinterest and adapted the recipe a bit. I love that the recipe calls for a homemade queso cheese sauce rather than pre-packaged. This recipe isn't spicy (my kids ate and enjoyed it, and trust me, they don't do spicy) but you can increase the amount of cayenne pepper for more of a kick or use hot salsa and pepperjack cheese. You can also use a packaged taco seasoning in place of the seasonings I used. Recipe adapted from: picky-palate.com
