Cream Cheese & Chicken Taquitos

These taquitos were amazing! I had actually never heard of a taquito until I came across this recipe on Pinterest (recipe link here). The tortillas were crispy and the cream cheese filling really melts in your mouth. Instead of making tacos or quesadillas, try this Mexican inspired recipe! 

Turkey, Bacon & Avocado Panini

I have finally strayed away from Mexican food for a little while and decided to make a panini! I'm usually not a big sandwich person, but this panini may have converted me. Instead of going to Panera or somewhere to get one, you can actually make your own delicious and nutritious panini (minus the bacon that I didn't use) right in your own kitchen! You can also switch things up a bit: if you prefer ham instead of turkey, or a different cheese - there's a bunch of combinations you can try!

Garlic Parmesan Spinach Orzo

This week I decided to make pasta (it has been a while since I have made some!). I have also been on a spinach kick, so this recipe was perfect. And because there's cheese, of course. I also had never made anything with orzo before, and let me tell you, it was delicious! The awesome thing about this recipe is there's a bunch of leftovers so you won't have to cook for the next few days!

Avocado Beef Quesadillas

I'm still having Mexican food cravings this week, so I experimented with something new. I love, love, love avocados! So I thought this type of quesadilla would be a nice balance of Mexican, without the typical ingredients like peppers, onions, etc., or other ingredients that might be spicy. I also completely overestimated on how much to make. I could barely eat half of one quesadilla because the avocados are actually really filling. This quesadilla will seriously melt in your mouth!
