Roaming through the Paint Mines in Calhan, CO

[image error]

To celebrate my 100th post I wanted to share with you one of my favorite destinations!

Located about two hours south of Denver, the Paint Mines Interactive Park is a wonder to see and hike through.  It is an interesting place to discover see all the beautiful layers of color within the rock formations. This park has just a little over three miles of trails and its open from dawn until dusk. Pets are not allowed here, admission is free into the park, and make sure to bring some water also. Th...

Shrimp Spring Rolls

This week I made spring rolls for some friends and family. I love the crunch you get from the  veggies and the fresh herbs in these rolls make this so delicious! Serve with a peanut sauce, teriyaki, or a sweet chili sauce. This makes a great appetizer before the main course. I also love to just eat it as a bowl without the rice paper wrap and its so light and refreshing on a warm day.

Vegan Note: You can make these with tofu or just add extra veggies in place of the shrimp.

Yield: 10 rolls

My dream is to travel, explore, eat, and write my way through the world. You only have this time now...

Simple Refried Bean and Rice Burritos

On the weekends, I love to prep cook and plan some meals for the week. I was looking through my pantry and had some rice, a can of refried beans, and some green enchilada sauce, so I decided to make burritos. It’s an easy meal when your short on time, or tired from a busy day.  It makes an easy meal that’s filling and easy on your wallet too.

I used vegan refried beans, white rice, and a spinach tortilla  for my recipe. This is a great base recipe so feel free to add extras like fresh cilantr...
