One-Pan Vegetarian Taco Pasta

One Pan Vegetarian Taco Pasta

If you’re looking for a hearty/easy weeknight dinner for the vegetarian (possibly you!) in your life, this One-Pan Vegetarian Taco Pasta recipe is right up your alley.  The real flavor MVP comes from browning soyrizo as the base.

In case you’re new here, Soyrizo is chorizo made out of soy. I mostly use it in taco form but I thought I’d try something different with pasta and here we are!

It is PACKED with flavor and is the base of this dish.

It’s almost like having chili and macaroni and cheese at the same time!

Lemon Blueberry Cake

Lemon Blueberry Cake

While cleaning out the fridge on Sunday, I found Greek yogurt in the back of the fridge that expired on my birthday (TODAY- August 18th!) and with the help of the blueberries that were screaming USE ME in my produce drawer, this Lemon Blueberry Cake was born.

Happy birthday to us, cake! 

Lemon Blueberry Cake

Why wait for a celebration to make/eat cake when you can let an expiration date inspire you? 

I mean, I had to put that yogurt to good use, didn’t I? 

Lemon Blueberry Cake

If you’re interested in enhancing your week, make this Lemon Blueberry Cake to pick at (or share!) all week long. It’s like a cross between lemon pound cake and a blueberry muffin. It only took me 4 slices to figure that out 😉
