🌮 I had a request this week for Birria Tacos fr

🌮 I had a request this week for Birria Tacos from my son. Apparently, they are all the rage among the @tiktok youngsters. I had never made them before so did some research + developed a recipe so I could give them a go.
.
.
These darn tacos are a “high maintenance” meal so be forewarned. Birria tacos are typically made with marinated + stewed meat…beef or lamb or goat being the most popular options. I opted for beef. The tacos are prepared using the stew that results from slow cooking the meat with loads of yummy ingredients. You fry them until they are crispy + serve them with a side of the stew for dipping. They were a hit in my house so if you are inclined to make them for your family, my recipe is linked in bio + at communitykitchenatl.com.
.
.
beef shank + top sirloin + ancho chile peppers + chipotle peppers in adobo + apple cider vinegar + whole peeled tomatoes + garlic + oregano + cumin + smoked paprika + onion + cinnamon stick + bay leaves + chicken stock + tortillas + Mexican cheese blend + cilantro + avocado

🍅 Roasted Tomato Vodka Sauce, come to mama!! Buy everything you need to make this sauce + hunker down + get your simmer on! This is not a quick pasta sauce (the longer it simmers, the better it gets), BUT it is so delish + satisfying + flavorful is it worth your time. I promise.
.
.
I like to make my vodka sauce a bit spicy by adding red pepper flakes. And, I always use table cream instead of heavy cream or half + half, etc. Table cream comes in a can + has a higher fat content which helps prevent it from curdling. Thus, it’s perfect for sauce or soups. A little bit goes a long way! Recipe is linked in bio + at communitykitchenatl.com.

☕️ My homemade mocha really hit the spot this morning. I serve it piping hot + make it with freshly ground, really strong coffee prepared in a French press. I whisk in 1 - 2 tablespoons of rich dark chocolate + top it with creamy steamed milk. Perfection!

🥘 Sheet pan suppers are one of my favorite ways

🥘 Sheet pan suppers are one of my favorite ways to create a healthy + delicious weeknight meal for my family. My Oven-Roasted Sausage + Acorn Squash is super simple + the perfect way to ease right into 2021 meal prep! The secret to making this simple supper outrageously delicious? I caramelize the shallots + garlic + oregano in white balsamic before it all goes in the oven. Oh, and the roasted juices from the sausage seep into all those veggies. Something magical happens inside that oven… Recipe is linked in bio + at communitykitchenatl.com.

🍎 My Sunday baking project required no baking today! Instead, I opted to make a big batch of my Homemade Spiced Apple Butter. Not only is it rich + thick + creamy + slightly sweet…it will also make your kitchen smell like a giant apple pie. Slather my spiced apple butter on nutty toast + muffins + biscuits + homemade bread OR use it to make spiced apple bread or muffins. Either way, make a big batch of this deliciousness today…it’ll keep in your refrigerator for a month. Recipe is linked in bio + at communitykitchenatl.com.
