Impossible Everything! And a Chili-Cheese Burrito!

I've been trying to find all kinds of fun new ways to use my chipotle chickpea chili that I made on Chef AJ's show a couple weeks ago. Chili is great on its own in a bowl, but it's even more fun as a topping for, say, a Chili Cheese Burrito! This has Simple Truth Plant-Based Queso (the best!) and the chili on top, and the inside is stopped with sauteed tofu, spinach, black beans, and rice.

I finally found Impossible burger in stores! Our Trader Joe's carries it, so I picked some up a couple weeks ago. I used some to make Impossible Spaghetti. For this, I just browned some Impossible burger with mushrooms and added a jarred marinara sauce.

And then last Saturday, Paul and I grilled up some quick Impossible Burgers with Chao Cheese after we watched Joe Biden's speech. Wasn't it just amazing??? Awwwww. What a great day Saturday was! Not only did we win the election that day, but it was 70-something degrees in Memphis and sunny all day. A perfect day for grilling. Sorry for the crappy pic, but it was late by then, and I was HANGRY.

Last Thursday, I had to get groceries after work, so I stopped by City Silo, which is out by our Sprouts, for takeout. I got the BBQ Squash Bowl, which has spaghetti squash, kale, BBQ sauce, croutons, corn, rice, quinoa, and cashew ranch. It was sooo good. Their patio is open, and I would have liked to have eaten there, but it was chilly that night. So I ate this in my car. 

And finally, here's some delicious and hearty Corn Chowder that I made for dinner on Sunday. It's from Terry Walters' Clean Food cookbook — one I haven't used in quite awhile. I'm attempting to make a recipe from every one of my cookbooks over the next few years (it'll take a few years!). This simple recipe has corn, potatoes, carrots, celery, and unsweetened soymilk, and it's so delicious.

  1. Seriously, that burrito is GORGEOUS!! Like it should be on the cover of a cookbook or magazine!
    I love that Trader Joe's carries Impossible, I don't know about where you live, but here they have the best price on it too!
    OMG, I need that spaghetti squash bowl!! I was just thinking that it's been awhile since I've had spaghetti squash, but I'm always super boring when I prepare it.
