The colors are beautiful, but the ground up insides of all those veggies are generally not something […]
Broccoli & Mozzarella Pizzadillas

In an effort to completely rid our fridge of anything relating to the quesadilla, I decided to use us the last of the tortillas, yet do something creative with the remainders.

1 <3 Soba noodles. Having shunned white pasta (white flour and extra carbs?
