Emergency Lenten Meal
open a can of refried beans and spread on a tostada shell
add some salsa and any veggies on hand
if it isn't Wednesday or Friday, go wild and add some shredded cheese and sour cream
slice an avocado and try to hide it from the kids
kids discover avocado; 'share' most of it even though they already had lunch
microwave tostada for about a minute; leave the kitchen to wrangle the kids
come back to kitchen; discover that plate was not covered and refried beans have exploded a bit.
clean up microwave's bean explosion while tostada cools
eat it; make another if still hungry, being careful to cover the plate
wow! "Emergency" Lenten meal! That looks like a pretty good Lenten meal to me!

Mmm, yummy! Just in time for me to fix a little lunch for myself, and no kids around to steal the avocado. :)
ReplyDeleteSarah- that's not today's tostada :0
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quick meal, we make use of canned refried beans often during Lent. I will be sure to share this with my family, since they often make their own after school snacks
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite quick meals.
