Shredded Beef Taquitos

A few weeks ago we took out of the freezer some steaks to have the next day.  We were very surprised when we opened the package and found a huge roast instead.  Dinner plans then had to be changed for that day, but we did get the most out of that roast.  We ate it with baked potatoes, then made french dips, shredded beef barbecues and then these little beauties out of it!!  So it all turned out great.  It actually made for an easy meal planning.  I thought I had taken better pictures of these, but was wrong and the family ate them so fast!!  Anyway this is s for sure keeper!!

Shredded Beef Taquitos

Makes about 12-16 

2-3 cups roast, shredded

1/4 cup onion

4 oz cream cheese

2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

3/4 to 1 cup salsa

1 package 6 inch tortillas (corn or flour)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Soften the cream cheese in the microwave just a bit.  Place in a  medium sized bowl and mix the roast, onion, cheese and salsa together.  Lay your tortillas out and place about 1-2 Tablespoons of the mixture down one side. *Note it does help them roll better if you heat the tortillas for just a bit first.

Roll up and place on a greased cookie sheet.

Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray and sprinkle with a little salt.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes (or until edges and tops are golden). I rotated min after the first 10 minutes. 

Let cool for a couple of minutes.  

These also freeze well.  I was hoping to have some to freeze, but the family ate every single one in one sitting!!

They loved them!!

Farro with Asparagus & Green Onion Sauce ♥

Today's simple vegetarian supper recipe: Asparagus cooked with the lovely grain called "farro" and topped with a simple and most surprising green onion sauce. My version of Heidi Swanson's recipe has been "lightened" considerably, reducing the calories, carbs and Weight Watchers points.

~recipe & photo updated & reposted 2013~
~more recently updated recipes~

2007 ORIGINAL POST I'm betting that when Heidi Swanson titled her new cookbook Super Natural Cooking, by 'super natural' she meant something other than (1) three hours of afternoon errands (2) feeling oh-so-tempted to pick up supper somewhere, anywhere, on the way home (3) deciding otherwise and (4) then, the payoff, 30 minutes later, sitting down to a fast, delicious and healthful meal. (And colorful! Look at that plate!) In my book, anyway, one definition of 'supernatural' is helping us successfully battle the lure of the drive-through. Thank you, Heidi!

In fact, Heidi did mean something else by Super Natural, as the subtitle reveals: Five Ways To Incorporate Whole and Natural Ingredients into Your Cooking.

Heidi's cookbook is a thinking cook's friend, one to challenge your pantry along with your brain. I'm just beginning to explore its concepts and its recipes but if the farro/asparagus combination is any prediction, this is destined to be a favorite cookbook, perhaps one of my very own 101 Cookbooks (yes, that's Heidi's food blog/website).

It is fun to make and so delicious to eat! One of those cakes that will never be the same each time you make it.  So it can also be known as the cake of many patterns!!

The Cake of Many Colors
1 package white or yellow cake mix (I used yellow)
Food coloring
*Some One Direction music to rock out to while you work. :)
Follow the instructions on the box to make the cake batter.
Divide the batter in to different bowls for however many colors you plan on using.

I used seven.  Put ten drops (or until you get the color you want) of the desired color in each bowl

 and stir to mix. 

Grease your pan.  Start with one color and spoon it into the bottom of the pan. Put the next color in the middle on top of the first color.  Repeat until all your colors are used.

At this point you can run a knife through it to make it look a little tye dyed.

Bake according to the box instructions.

Directions:
1. Season the leg of lamb by rubbing salt and pepper over it.
2. In a large slow cooker brown the leg of lamb on all sides over medium high heat. This should take about ten minutes.
3. Once the meat has browned, drain away any excess fat.
4. Add in the onions, garlic and carrots and sauté.
5. Add in the wine and stock as well and add pepper and salt to taste
6. Cover and cook on low for 7 hours until meat is nice and tender.
7. Add Armagnac and serve.

Cooking Tips:
If the lamb sticks while browning, simply add a few drops a bit of oil over it. This will prevent the lamb from sticking to the bottom of the pan and burning. If the sauce becomes too much, strain from the cooker and reduce it in a pan

RHUBARB: THE BASICS
Pronounced [ROO-barb]. Also called "Pie Plant".

The rhubarb season is "spring and early summer". The rhubarb plant is technically a vegetable but its crisp, sour stalks are most often cooked like fruit with sugar. Like celery ribs, rhubarb stalks are long and smooth, sometimes thin and sometimes thick, sometimes pale green and best of all, "rhubarb red" – my favorite color! A rhubarb's triangular leaves are inedible at best, toxic at worst. Rhubarb is especially appreciated in the Midwest and Scandinavia, especially the red varieties that add glorious color to pies, muffins, cobblers and other treats.
