Top 10 Mashup Mom Recipes, 2019 edition

Deconstructed vegetarian enchiladas skillet has all of the enchiladas flavor you want in a super easy cast iron skillet recipe

First up, a fairly late entry chronology-wise that’s still clocking in as a new favorite: This deconstructed vegetarian enchiladas skillet has all of the enchiladas flavor you want, but with a fraction of the effort. So easy, so filling, so flavorful, and naturally gluten free!

chopped chicken avocado tomato cucumber salad is a cooling, yet filling dinner salad idea for a hot summer's evening.

On the slightly cooler & lighter (yet still filling) side, how about a chopped chicken avocado tomato cucumber salad? Perfect for a warm summer’s evening — and oh, how I miss warm summer evenings right now! — this easy & veggie packed dinner salad is both low carb and gluten free.

toasted open face caprese sandwiches with avocado -- meatless monday at its best!

Beyond salad, let’s keep avocado-ing! Here’s a Meatless Monday favorite: These toasted open face Caprese sandwiches with avocado pair well with a cup of soup or a side salad for a complete (and completely delicious) vegetarian dinner. So good, even the confirmed carnivorous boys in my family don’t miss the meat.

This chicken & cauliflower sheet pan dinner is a deliciously easy all-in-one meal! Serve with naan as I did here, or simply enjoy it on its own.

You can’t beat an easy all-in-one sheet pan dinner, and this chicken & cauliflower sheet pan dinner recipe ticks all the boxes. I like mine with naan because you can make delicious little mini sandwiches, but keto folks can skip that and just enjoy the chicken and veggies experience.

garlic soy pork with edamame rice

Such a variety of deliciousness to choose from this year! I almost forgot about garlic soy pork with edamame rice, which plays with both flavor and texture. This recipe so feels like spring to me: It pairs pieces of sweet & tangy garlicky marinated pork with a batch of lightly seasoned edamame rice, to create a complete & filling dinner.

easy chipotle taco soup with ground beef

And who can put together a yearly recipe roundup without soup — Have I mentioned how much I love soup? Not just for the ease, or the comfort, or the warming, but for the big batches that make for the best leftover lunches. Easy chipotle taco soup is as excellent for lunch as it is for dinner, making it a new comfort food favorite this year.

garlic shrimp with roasted cauliflower, white beans, and tomatoes

Speaking of comfort food… the only thing I love as much as soup is a good cast iron skillet recipe. (Seriously: Every kitchen should have a 12″ cast iron skillet. They’re super affordable, and will last you forever.) Garlic shrimp with roasted cauliflower, white beans, and tomatoes is a simple & delicious one pan dinner that lets you bulk up a small 12 oz bag of shrimp to feed a whole family.

zucchini spanish rice burrito bowls with chicken & mushrooms

Speaking of cast iron, here’s a two-skillet recipe for you. Use your cast iron skillet to give the chicken and mushrooms their delicious browning, and use a regular skillet to cook up Spanish rice + zucchini. There you have it: Zucchini Spanish rice burrito bowls with chicken & mushrooms. The flavor on these mushrooms is seriously amazing; I could just eat them all day and be satisfied. They kick everything else up a notch in this savory & veggie-full comfort-food-in-a-bowl gluten free recipe!

slow cooker salsa chicken tacos: The easiest and most family pleasing recipe you ever did see.

I know, this is an oldie but a goodie — but reposted in 2019 with better photos and notes. Slow cooker salsa chicken tacos are such a perennial family favorite over here that I can’t not include them: This is one of the simplest yet best recipes I know, and the one dinner the boys never complain about! 🙂 Salsa chicken tacos are always the perfect choice for a busy day.

chicken sausage + artichoke pasta

Do you love the Never Any! chicken sausage from ALDI as much as I do? Here’s my latest easy dinner using their chicken apple sausage + some basic pantry staples. A tangy twist on pasta night, this simple chicken sausage & artichoke pasta recipe is a feast for both your eyes and your taste buds. Also check out the bonus recipe in this post; you can use your leftover artichoke marinade to make a quick + easy dressing for salad on the side.

Yep! Four of these made my family’s list...but their all time fav is sausage, green bean, and potato sheet pan. Yay! Sheet pan!

Deconstructed Enchiladas are a recent hit! Thanks so much!
