Vegan MoFo Day 6: Honoring the Taco Cleanse with Leftovers

The best thing to happen to food all year is, by far, The Taco Cleanse!  I don't know about you guys, but I know I am guilty of not feeding my family enough tacos.  I feel so much shame at my myself for letting something so important slide.  The only way to rectify this is to START NOW.  Full steam ahead!  No child left behind. 

Lazy Smurf tells us how it all works with this handy chart.  Austin can teach us so much.

Starting this now is convenient since it was leftover "Clean Out the Fridge" night anyway!  Tacos are my favorite way to use up the little bits of leftovers and the produce that is on the verge.  The kids love it!  It's basically a full on buffet.  What kid isn't happy choosing their own foods?

Below are my tacos.  I went with brown rice, black beans, marinated mushrooms, caramelized onions and Tofutti Guacamole Sour Cream.  I felt better instantly!  Amazing.

 

The kids both used up all the veggies and had much prettier tacos, but of course I forgot to take pictures of them!  No worries.  Plenty more tacos to be had.  Onward for the cause!

Vegan MoFo Day 5: "Dog Burritos"

It's convenient to have some lazy kid food on hand at all times.  Something that you can have ready to eat in 10 minutes, while making everyone get dressed, feeding the cat, packing soccer bags, whatever. 

Might I recommend "Dog Burritos"?  You might know them as Pigs in a Blanket, but Silas says that doesn't make any sense, and I am siding with him on this one. 

1 package of Smart Dogs & 2 packages of Pillsbury Cresent Rolls and you have yourself 16 little Dog Burritos.  Silas is the Dog wrapper in our house and insists no one helps him, so feel free to let the little hands take care of this job in your kitchen! 

These are great for serving at kid's parties too!
