Easily one of the tastiest breakfasts!

Homemade Breakfast Tacos

Breakfast tacos are best when they're homemade and made fresh from scratch! Beginning with fresh tortillas and piled high with plenty of meat and eggs, and loaded up with all the best breakfast taco toppings.

Yes making them from scratch is more of a labor of love but easily worth it in the end. Once you get the hang of homemade tortillas they are a breeze. And fresh pico de gallo easily beats out bottled salsa.

Weekends and even weeknight dinners were made for these breakfast tacos! They may even take the place of your favorite pancake breakfast that many of us have on repeat. So much to love about these hearty, flavor packed tacos!

Black Bean Soup https://www.cookingclassy.com/black-bean-soup/ https://www.cookingclassy.com/black-bean-soup/#comments Wed, 07 Feb 2018 05:33:01 +0000 https://www.cookingclassy.com/?p=22881 Black bean soup definitely doesn't quite get the attention it deserves. We all hear about broccoli cheese soup, potato soup, vegetable soup, chicken noodle soup and so on but black bean soup isn't as popular as it should be. It's so hearty, it's healthy (mostly, we've got a bit of bacon for flavor here) and it's totally satisfying. Plus it's so easy to make!

Black Bean Soup

Flavorful Black Bean Soup

You need to make this easy black bean soup! Yes it may seem boring if you've never had it, but if you flavor it right by adding in things like bacon, poblano peppers, fire roasted tomatoes, some cumin and some ancho chili powder then incredibly delicious things happen!

Then of course if you finish it off with the bright tones of lime juice and the freshness of cilantro along with the creaminess of avocados and sour cream (or Mexican crema) you just know it's got to be good.

I mean if anything has bacon and avocado in it then I'll always approve.

Collection of Black Bean Recipes I Love:

  • You can add black beans to tacos (like I've done in each here 1, 2, 3).
  • You can toss them in to up the protein and fiber of a dish - like in this quick 30 minutes meal.
  • Of course they are wonderful in soups (like these options here 1, 2, 3, 4).
  • You can add them as part of the stuffing for bell peppers (1) or sweet potatoes (2).
  • And don't we all love them tossed into a green salad?

Chile Relleno Grilled Cheese Sandwich https://www.cookingclassy.com/chile-relleno-grilled-cheese-sandwich/ https://www.cookingclassy.com/chile-relleno-grilled-cheese-sandwich/#comments Fri, 12 Apr 2013 05:47:02 +0000 https://www.cookingclassy.com/?p=4880 After a long day, isn't it nice sometimes to just come home, put on your most comfortable pair of lounge pants (you know, that pair that you've had for 4 years that you just can't let go of) and quickly toss together a comforting, irresistibly filled and piled high with cheesy goodness, grilled cheese sandwich. Then to enjoy it hot of the griddle with all the stringy cheese, mmmm mouthwatering. I call it grilled cheese bliss.

chili relleno grilled cheese

I love building grilled cheese sandwiches because there are countless combinations of what can be created and you have a simple yet satisfying meal in a number of minutes. The other great thing about grilled cheese is the amount of flavor you can get with so few ingredients. It's possible thanks to the key ingredient, the abundance of flavor packed cheeses that are available. Cheese is one of the greatest foods ever.

I've made three different kinds of grilled cheeses to join in on the celebration of grilled cheese month (yeah grilled cheese is so amazing it's earned a whole month of celebration. I want to figure out how to do this for my birthday =)). This one is two amazing foods in one, grilled cheese along with a twist on a classic Mexican dish, Chile Relleno. Rather than stuffing, dipping and frying a Chili Relleno, I layered the ingredients while keeping all the same flavors. Grilled cheese lovers, put this at the top of your must make soon list.
