Breakfast nachos
Drain and rinse beans. Place them in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the water and chili powder and season with salt. Stir to combine and smash about half of the beans with the back of a fork. Cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat.
Place eggs in a medium bowl and beat with a fork. Add hot sauce, season with a pinch each of salt and pepper, and beat to mix; set aside.
Melt the butter in a medium nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat until foamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Swirl the butter in the pan until the pan is evenly coated. Pour in the beaten eggs and let sit undisturbed until the eggs just start to set around the edges, about 2 minutes.
Using a rubber spatula, push the eggs from the edges into the center. Let sit again for about 30 seconds, then repeat pushing the eggs from the edges into the center every 30 seconds until just set, about 1 1/2 minutes total. Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle the eggs with half of the cheese and stir to mix.
Divide the chips between serving plates and top evenly with the warm beans. Sprinkle remaining cheese evenly over the beans, spoon the eggs over top of the beans and cheese, and top with the salsa. Serve with guacamole and sour cream, if desired.
Morning Roasted Potatoes
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Wash and cut up potatoes.
In a hot skillet, melt the butter. Stir in rosemary, salt and pepper. Coat potatoes evenly with the melted butter. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking pan.
Bake in a preheated oven until potatoes are golden brown, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Toss them occasionally to ensure that they brown on all sides.

Pasta la Checca
PREPARATION: Finely chop/mince garlic cloves.
Cook the pasta until al dente.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, squeeze the tomatoes to break them up (it's faster than chopping, and your kid will likely love joining in).
Add the garlic, oil, arugula (if using), salt, and pepper; set aside.
Drain the pasta (reserving 1/2 cup of the water) and toss it with the tomatoes. If the pasta is still a little dry, add some of the cooking water.
Let sit until the heat from the pasta has cooked the tomatoes and garlic slightly and wilted the arugula, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Roasted asparagus
Preheat oven to 425F.
Cut off the woody bottom part of the asparagus spears and discard.
With a vegetable peeler, peel off the skin on the bottom 2-3 inches of the spears. This keeps the asparagus from being all "stringy"
Place asparagus on foil-lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Sprinkle with salt
With your hands, roll the asparagus around until they are evenly coated with oil and salt.
Roast for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your stalks and how tender you like them.
They should be tender when pierced with the tip of a knife.
The tips of the spears will get very brown but watch them to prevent burning.
They are great plain, but sometimes I serve them with a light vinaigrette if we need something acidic to balance out our meal.
Cottage Cheese & Apricots
Cut apricots into pieces and mix into cottage cheese. Enjoy!

Soak the ramen noodles in a bowl of warm water for at least 5 minutes to soften them; drain.
Heat the oil in a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Slice shiitakes and add to pan along with the flavoring packet from the ramen noodles and whites of green onions and stir-fry until the mushrooms begin to take on a golden brown color. Season with pepper; remove from the pan to a plate.
To the skillet or wok add the butter and the noodles; toss for 1 minute. Add the shiitake mushrooms and toss again for another minute, adding greens on scallions, pinch of red pepper flakes, additional black pepper, and a pinch of black sesame seeds (if using). Serve.
