As long as you have canned salmon and eggs, you can whip them up anytime. The remaining ingredients are very flexible.

Love burritos and enchiladas? With these hearty burritos, smothered in enchilada sauce, you never have to choose a favorite! They come together in one skillet for a quick dinner that’s packed with Mexican flavor.

For a fun twist, swap 1 can (15 oz) Progresso™ black beans, drained and rinsed, for the refried beans.

I love burritos and enchiladas and this recipe looks relatively easy to make.

Unfortunately, my digestive system often reacts poorly to ground meats (so many of my old favorite meals had to be added to my "do not eat" list after my colon surgery in 2014) but I might give this one a try. Maybe I could try taking Lomotil before eating them and see if that works.

Thanks for posting this, Daniel. It looks delicious! :)

Here are a few suggestions to stay with the Mediterranean theme.
  • Toast the bread before adding the ingredients.
  • Instead of bread, make your sandwich on a crusty whole grain baguette or pita bread.
  • Replace the hummus with pesto sauce or add the pesto sauce to the hummus.
  • Veggie ideas: marinated mushrooms, shredded carrots, red onions, roasted peppers, sun dried tomato
[Panera Bread also uses picked red onions in their sandwiches.]
"Good food doesn’t have to be fancy. My day-to-day favourite is a sandwich made with black pumpernickel bread, Swiss cheese, lettuce, mustard mayo, Black Forest ham, a few sliced pickles and a dollop of grape jelly."

~ Dan Aykroyd

Mediterranean Baked Sweet Potatoes


The concept is simple:

Baked sweet potatoes – cut in half to shorten cooking time
Seasoned, roasted chickpeas
Garlic-herb sauce
Parsley-tomato salad for garnish

The result is a 30-minute lunch or dinner that’s both satisfying, savory and sweet, and seriously healthy.

The stuffed shells at Olive Garden are luxuriously creamy. There are also stuffed-shell recipes with mushrooms and spinach.
