Almost 4 year old son-"So cows milk comes from mommy cows but what body part?"
Mom- "Well, the 'breasts' of the female cow."
Almost 4 year old- "So people drink cows breast milk?"
Mom-"Yep."
Almost 4 year old-"That's disgusting!!" (loud enough that two customers turned around)
Mom-"I agree with you."
Almost 4 year old-"And it's stealing. You shouldn't steal."
Mom-"That's true too."
He's been mulling this around in his head for many, many months and it's so adorable to see him piece it all together so easily. Of course, I think he got his impressive streak from my side of the family with all the lawyers, judges, and rebels.....
So in the spirit of stickin it to the man ie: the horrific dairy industry and celebrating really cool, compassionate companies like DAIYA and Follow Your Heart, my hubby created this recipe in about, ummmm - 2 minutes. I don't know what's going on with Daiya cheese and this sell-out they seem to be having but it's been at least 75% off for the past two weeks so I've been buying them out every time I do a Whole Foods run. My massive appreciation for this non-dairy cheese continues. I present to you some really awesome, easy vegan quesadillas........
.....Enjoy~
Ingredients:
Organic Trader Joe's or Whole Foods Tortillas
Daiya cheese
Organic Refried beans
Organic zucchini (about 1 small zucchini)
Organic frozen spinach
Avocados/or guacamole and or salsa (optional)
(Served two adults and 1 child)
Directions:
Sauté the frozen spinach, zucchini and any other veggies you want to throw in or you have laying around you want to use up. Sauté until done or all water from spinach is gone. Set aside.
Slice daiya or spread on top of one of the tortillas. Spread refried beans over another tortilla, add sauteed veggies onto cheese side tortilla and fry in pan. Place lid on top to melt cheese faster. Top with guacamole or salsa~
