Monster Hoodie Giveaway

I had so much fun making my nephew a monster hoodie for Christmas that when I ran across a hoodie at the store the other day, I thought it might be fun to make another & do a monster hoodie giveaway.

This black hoodie is a 4T, but if you don't have a little one that size, 

it would also make for a super fun gift!

To enter to win, just leave a comment on this post, along with a way to contact you should you win. The winner will be chosen at random & announced in a post one week from today (Jan. 30). Happy commenting!

Buffalo Chickpea Baked Potato

When I stumbled upon this recipe for buffalo chickpea baked potatoes, I absolutely could not wait to try it for myself. There are few things I've missed since becoming a vegetarian, but buffalo chicken wings are one of them. The hub & I actually keep wing sauce on hand to put it on just about anything. Pizza? Yes, please! Sandwiches? Sure, why not? But, we've never thought to put it on chickpeas before & this turned out to be a great combination.

As I said, we used wing sauce (as opposed to hot sauce + butter) & we also split a can of chickpeas between the two of us, but those are the only changes that we made to the original recipe. We topped them with a bit of shredded mozzarella & I put a smidge of ranch dressing on mine. They were awesome (not to mention super filling) & I can't wait to make them again!

Black Bean & Squash Burritos

The hub & I made these black bean & butternut squash burritos tonight & they were super yum!

I didn't have any vegan cheese on hand. So I ended up subbing some shredded mozzarella, but that was the only change I made. Since the recipe only calls for 1.5 cups of the roasted squash, we ended up having some leftover that served as a side. Super good & super filling!
