This is like a warm "Cowboy Caviar" lol. This is pretty cool because most of the time I like dinners to be a warm meal.

Every single video has “even if you’re too tired” people, if you are consistently too exhausted to prepare food you need to examine why. That is not normal by any means.

I made this!! I changed it a bit ( no lettuce and some smoked tofu also some tortillas on the side) and it was super good!! Thank you for this recipe

my partner and i made this last night for dinner and oh my god it was delicious!! i wouldn’t stop rambling to him about how it was so yummy and nourishing at the same time, so thank you for this recipe! we’re both students and with term starting soon i was trying to find easy but balanced meals for us to cook and this is easily a new go to! thank you!!

That looks so gud, I wanna try that with some chicken 💜💜💜

Just made this for dinner for my family, great reviews all around. I substituted the beans for some ground beef and it still tasted really good. Thanks for the recipe

Dude that looks ridiculous! And by ridiculous I mean outstandingly amazical! Yes amazical is a word, amazing +radical ….

Ok finally going grocery shopping :)

This was so good!! Loved eating it!! :]

This was my lunch probably 3/5 days a (school) week in my upper grades. So glad to see someone else likes it :D

Thank you. You have just saved me from A, Starving or B, Eating bland ramen. This is going in my toolbox!

Yummy. I’d also add some meat.

I'm an Olympic rider in training and you HAVE THE PERFECT RECIPES! For my new diet Thank you! Btw new subscriber.❤🎉

My problem is commiting to prep. All I have to do is think about the colossal amount of cutting and I give up. I need to put it up when I get it home otherwise the lonely pepper become sad peppers.

Thank you so so much for these videos!! I meal plan for my grandma and I have been struggling to find recipes she will actually enjoy and actually take little time and effort! I love your channel and these videos really help me out.

Love this❤. So good for a quick meal, especially when you don't know what to eat & it looks comforting.

I'll definitely try this one!!

I seriously love love love these weekly recipes! Thank you Kylie! Your videos make me not feel guilty to eat food ❤️

Im screamingg. this is perfect, I wanna cry

Hi there Kylie

😅

I noticed you used an oven mitt for the lid of your pan, see if you can fit a wine cork under the lid handle and just pinch that instead cause it wont get hot. That's what I use for my stainless steel lids :)

how do I save shorts?

I really appreciate you you’re real, you post the recipes….I’m so disillusioned with someone else on here…shouldn’t let it bum me out but for now it does you’re a breath of fresh air Hope you feel,as well as you look! Deepest gratitude!

Omg I do this too! Except w rice because that Hawaii upbringing is strong. I also just use refried beans straight from the can and stick it in the microwave with leftover rice and cheese. Then top with whatever’s around !

better with ground beef and onions, when its all done throw in shredded mozzarella and boom lord have mercy

What's that pan?

This looks so good! I can imagine eating this over brown rice too.

My IBS rejects this dinner. I can't take many short cuts in the kitchen because of those fodmaps so I just make double recipes and freeze it for those lazy nights.

I guess the secret to easy meal is to have a good amount of spices at home

I hate veggies please help 😭

How about some easy, nutritious & sustainable dishes? :)
