    Ingredients













    Directions

    Preheat oven to 400°F.

    Poke sweet potatoes with a a fork several times.

    Bake sweet potatoes for about 45-55 minutes or until soft.

    About 15 minutes before sweet potatoes are done, heat a skillet to medium heat.Heat a teaspoon of olive oil. Sauté spinach until wilted. Add the tomatoes, chiles and corn and heat for about 2-3 minutes.

    Add black beans, lime juice and spices and lower to low heat.

    Stir and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.

    When sweet potatoes are out of the oven,cut sweet potatoes in half and mash the inside. (You can remove all of the flesh and mash together but that seems like more work than necessary to me!)

    Place the open sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and evenly distribute the bean mixture over the potatoes.

    Broil for about 6-8 minutes or until edges of the potatoes are crisp. Remove from the oven and garnish to your liking.

    Directions

    For the beef

    Combine the soy, mirin, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and coriander in a bowl. Add the steak; cover and refrigerate to marinade for 3 hours (or over night).

    Once marinaded, remove the steaks from the marinade and reserve the liquid. Fry the steaks on both sides over medium-high heat in a good quality skillet/non stick pan until cooked to your liking. Remove them from pan and allow to rest.

    Pour the reserved liquid into a smaller saucepan; bring to the boil; reduce heat and allow to simmer until the marinade has thickened and cooked through (for at least 5 minutes).

    Cut the beef into strips and coat them in the reserved marinade sauce.

    For the Kale Slaw

    Whisk the soy sauce, lime juice, mirin and sesame oil together in a bowl. Add the shredded and grated veggies and coat well.

    Ingredients














    Optional Fillings




    Directions

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Trim as much visible fat as possible from each rib (optional but helps lessen the fat content). Brown the ribs in batches until browned on both sides (about 3-4 minutes each side, per batch). Transfer the browned ribs to a 6 litre slow cooker.

    In a large jug, combine the chipotles, chipotle sauce, onion, garlic, barbecue sauce, lime juice, vinegar, bay leaves, cumin, salt, and broth together. Whisk well and pour over the ribs. Cover and cook for 6 hours on high or 10-12 hours on low, until the meat is falling off the bone. Allow the ribs to cool slightly in the sauce.

    Remove the ribs from the sauce. Remove any excess fat from the ribs; discard the bones and shred the meat. Using a metal spoon, skim the fat from the surface of the sauce in the slow cooker and discard. Mix the sauce into the meat and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spoon the meat and sauce into warm tortillas and serve with chopped fresh cilantro or parsley, the avocado slices and sour cream (or Crema).

    Ingredients











    Directions

    To make the special sauce, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and salt and pepper to taste (I like ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper). Set aside.

    To make the quesadillas, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook beef until browned and cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.

    Wipe out skillet, coat with nonstick spray, and heat over medium heat. Working with 1 tortilla at a time, add to skillet. Top half the quesadilla with ½ cup cheese, ¼ of the cooked beef. Top with pickle slices, and dill pickle chips if using.

    Sprinkle top half with ½ cup cheese. Fold in half and cook until cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes.
