I was in a Mexican food mood and picked up some new frozen taquitos at Whole Foods to try. The brand is Starlite Cuisine and the product is Crispy Soy Taquitos. I tried the "Chicken Style" and the "Chorizo and Black Bean Style." These taquitos do not contain gluten, dairy or meat. I was pleasantly surprise at how good they were! There were eight in a box and I ate four for dinner and they were plenty since they were nice size taquitos. I highly recommend this brand of taquitos if you love Mexican food and want to find a healthier alternative.

I love making a big pot of soup now and then - especially if it's a hearty soup. If you're a meat & potatoes kind of person, you'll enjoy this recipe!
Italian Sausage & Potato Soup
Ingredients:
4 c. water
4 c. GF chicken broth
3 large Russet potatoes, peeled, cut in quarters lengthwise and sliced thick
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 small yellow onion, chopped fine
1 lb. spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
1/2 lb. uncured bacon, chopped
2 c. chard, roughly chopped
1 c. almond milk or heavy cream
Directions: In a large pot, break up the sausage and brown along with the bacon. Remove and drain well, set aside. In the same pot add the water, broth, potatoes, garlic and onion. Boil over high heat for 15 minutes. Add sausage and bacon, let simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in chard and almond milk or cream. Add salt and pepper to taste and simmer for 5 minutes more. Serve!
