Fast & Easy Dinner: Tortilla Pie
While I've cooked my fair share of quesadillas, I've never experimented with tortilla pie, which is essentially, a stack of quesadillas. I've always wanted to though — there's something so interesting about a tower of tortillas with lots of layers and oozing filling. Doesn't a slice look intensely satisfying?
Fast & Easy Dinner: Jamaican Curried Tempeh Tacos
Just because a meal is meatless doesn't mean it can't be filled with flavor. This vegan recipe is jam-packed with tropical seasonings and varied textures. The onions and tempeh are slightly caramelized before being coated in cilantro, curry powder, and fresh ginger.
Have You Ever Made Your Own Tortillas?
Last week I attended a cooking club hosted by six of San Francisco's finest ladies. It was a fresh Mexican meal with the highlight being piping-hot homemade tortillas.
I was incredibly impressed by the gal who made them and surprised when she told me they were easy to make.

Fast & Easy Dinner: Chicken Picadillo
A traditional picadillo usually consists of ground beef or pork, but in this easy variation, chicken tenders are featured. The quick-cooking protein is sautéed with onions, garlic, and cumin.
At this point the recipe adds in raisins and olives, but any vegetable mixture would be delicious.
Not Your Regular Nachos: Mexican Pizza
When you think about it, a Mexican pizza is really a gigantic, circular nacho. The two main components of nachos — crispy tortillas and melted cheese — are present in Mexican pizzas.This recipe came out of my desire to use Spanish chorizo in one of my nacho experiments. Since the chorizo resembles pepperoni, I invented these pizza-like nachos.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Kitchen-Sink Quesadillas
Quesadillas are the perfect simple and quick dinner because they can be filled with anything, take little time to make, and are crowd pleasers. When paired with a leafy green salad, they make a satisfying meal. Tonight make vegetarian quesadillas filled with bean and corn salsa and lots of grated cheese.
Fast & Easy Dinner: 7-Layer Tortilla Pie
When I was younger I loved to order Mexican pizzas from Taco Bell. Now that I'm older and steer clear of fast-food joints, I like to make a similar tortilla pie in the comforts of my kitchen. This is a meatless version that features two types of beans: pinto and black.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Avocado and Feta Salad Wraps
With their creamy flesh and delicate color, avocados are an incredibly versatile fruit. Not only are they wonderful in classic Mexican dishes, they also taste delicious when mixed with fresh ingredients like tangy feta cheese and burst-in-your-mouth grape tomatoes. Served on top of a bed of lettuce, and a warmed tortilla, this chunky salad is both flavorful and filling.
