Vegetable Enchilada Ravioli

Confused?

When I told Nate that I was making this for dinner last night he looked at me with nothing but pure, unadulterated fear in his eyes.  He didn’t know what to do, what to expect.

 

It was touch-and-go there for a few minutes guys.  But I promise, as crazy as these sound they’re delicious and you WILL love them.  Promise.

Remember a few weeks ago when I faced my fears and made wontons for the first time?  And they came out delicious and heavenly and I am now craving mini eggrolls at 6AM talking about it?  Yeah, I had some leftover and on a whim decided to see if I could press them together to make ravioli.  Problem is I was craving enchiladas too and, well, if I’m being honest didn’t really have a lot of dinner options happening last night.

 

Waiting til the last minute to decide dinner is fun!

I did know that I had a can of black beans, some frozen corn, and a zucchini though.  And I knew that I could make my own enchilada sauce.  And I knew that if I posted this then it might make people go, “Hmmmmmm…”.  So there you have it:  my train of thought.  Just what you wanted, I know.

 

If I’m being real here I was a little scared too, but I figured it couldn’t taste bad.  All I have to say is that some risks were made to be taken.  Trust me here, you want these tonight.

VEGETABLE ENCHILADA RAVIOLI

  • 1 package of wontons wrappers, 48-count
  • 1 can (10-ish oz) black beans, drained (you can also skip a step and just use refried black beans if you’re in a rush)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 large zucchini
  • 1/2 cup corn (I used frozen but this time of year fresh is best if you have it!)
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (cheddar is great too)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • enchilada sauce (store-bought or homemade), heated up

In a food processor combine the beans, garlic, salt, pepper, cheese, and chili powder until it reaches a bean-dip consistency (as in a few chunks are good).  Grate the zucchini and squeeze as much of the water out by hand if you can.  Add the bean mixture, zucchini, and corn to a bowl and mix well.  Lay out the wonton wrappers and place 1 Tbsp of the bean mixture in the middle of half of the wontons.  Wet all 4 sides of all wrappers, then place one non-filled wrapper on a filled one and press all of the air out as you press all of the edges together.  Repeat until they’re all done.  Boil for 2-3 minutes on each side in salted water.  Remove from water and smother with enchilada sauce and a little more cheese if you like.

 

DEVOUR.

I know it’s weird, but mixing food groups (i.e. Italian and Mexican) can be totally rewarding.  I’m off to dream about lunch when I’ll be devouring the leftovers!

    I love the use of the wonton papers for ravioli. I have a hard time getting my girls to eat pasta, especially my 6 year old. This just might do the trick. Keep those creative juices flowing!

    I think this is a fantastic idea! This is such a fun take on regular enchiladas (or regular ravioli for that matter) that I know my family would enjoy.

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
