Football, food and family

Hannah Lucio

This past Sunday we had the best Sunday that we have had in a really long time. 

First I made breakfast sliders/sandwich. 

Two eggs, lots of bacon and Hawaiian rolls=heaven in our mouth. I definitely will be making these more. They are one of the easiest and simple yet delicious breakfast foods. 

Lunch we had an easy one again. 


Bbq wings. We bought a 10lb bag of wings at Costco. We took out 1/3 and let them thaw out for a few hours. Light up the bar-b-que and cook till done. We bought bbq sauce and buffalo sauce for dipping. Simple, easy and not that expensive.

Snacking:

Avocado mashed a little bit with tortilla chips. 

Besides and orange and apple that I had today…the avocado is the healthiest thing I had today. It’s defenitely a cheat day and not a day to worry about calories. 

Last weekend I made homemade pizza, it is always a go to food for us. 

It may not be the prettiest pizza you’ve ever seen but it works. Ha ha I am more about how food tastes versus the looks 😀 I posted my pizza dough recipe on my blog

I also made chocolate chip cookies. Oh my goodness were they addicting! I have also posted my recipe on my blog.  

As you can probably tell….we are foodies! We love food and we love to eat. We love football. And we also love to workout and be out doors. Football Sunday’s are fun for us and am so glad it is something we all enjoy for now. This football season I am going to try to experiment with different foods. This past week was not really planned so we just winged it. Ha! Maybe this coming up Sunday I will make a new recipe. If I do I will be sure to post it. 
Love happy

Easy Football foods

Hannah Lucio

Well, football is officially here and this house is very excited! We are on the east coast now So our games are later and we have to stay up super late to finish the games. A bummer but it means we need more snack foods. I posted a flautas recipe yesterday that would be perfect for snacking on. Today I am sharing my 7 layer bean dip and a look at our football pizza. I make the same recipe for the pizza but just change the ingredients or look. Its fun and cooking should be fun! Here is what our football pizza looked like before I put it in the oven

football pizza….and have to admit, we were so hungry that I forgot to take an after picture ha ha It was absolutely yummy though. Ill take a picture next time.

On to the bean dip recipe.

7 Layer Bean Dip

Ingredients:

Black bean refried beans (or regular refried beans)

Cheese sauce (I used tostitos)

Ground beef (I used taco seasoning for flavoring)

Avocado mashed up

sour cream

shredded cheese

olives

Directions:

In a 9×9 pan spread black beans (the first layer) on the bottom. Next spread cheese sauce over the black beans. Sprinkle the ground beef mixture on top of the cheese. Next, carefully spread the mashed up avocados over the meat. Next, even more carefully spread the sour cream on top of the avocados. I try not to move the avocado mixture when spreading the sour cream so it looks better. Sprinkle on the shredded cheese and after that sprinkle on the olives. And voila! Done! bean dip 4

Dish it up and enjoy. It is super easy, yummy and something you can eat throughout the day. This is one of my favorite football foods.

Enjoy and Live simple!

Go Saints!!

Easy Baked flautas

Hannah Lucio

I wanted to use ingredients I had on hand and came across flautas online. I’ve had them at restaurants but have never attempted homemade. I came up with my own version and they turned out so yummy! Here’s my recipe, feel free to use your own ingredients you have on hand. But this is a really yummy mixture. Also, if you are looking for footbal foods this would be perfect! 

Ingredients:

1 package of flour tortillas

3-4 cups spinach

Ground beef (I flavored it with taco seasoning) 

Brown rice

Shredded cheese

1 cup black beans, drained 

1-2 tsp olive oil 

Softened butter or olive oil for coating

A glass of wine or a beer-to drink while your cooking of course! Cooking should be fun! 
Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Cut up tortillas into quarters
  • Chop up spinach and put into a pan on the stove. Add 1 tsp of olive oil and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes. 
  • Mix ground beef, black beans and brown rice together
  • Put a small amount of ground beef mixture onto the outer curved part of the quartered tortilla. Next to it (on the inside) add a small amount of spinach. After that put a small amount of shredded cheese. Here is what mine looked like 
    ground beef mixture, spinach and cheese
     
  • Roll up from the outside in and place on a pre-sprayed cookie sheet. Continue until you fill the pan up. 
  • Take softened butter or olive oil and rub onto flautas. This is to make sure the flautas get crispy or flaky. Mine looked like this. I tried both to compare. I like the olive oil a little bit better but they both taste amazing.   
  • Put into oven for 15 minutes, take the, out and enjoy! They should look like this  
    This is the finished product comparison. They look similar.
     

I served them with cheese sauce, sour cream and avocado. 
Hope you enjoy them as much as we do! 

Love life and live simple.
