Keeper: Quesadilla
I wanted something warm and satifying and comforting for snack and I was wandering around indecisively until I remembered that I had tortillas.
So, less than 5 minutes later, warm quesadilla in hand (pepperjack and brie!), I am so happy with life.
I just did it dry, works fine and barely have to wash the pan, but I've also used just enough melted butter to coat the bottom before (internet tells me this is about 1/2 tsp. Could also use pam, or just read someone saying that they think it works better to put the butter on the tortilla with their fingers instead of hte pan)
Quesadilla ideas
Peanut butter and banana (really delicious desert one)
cheese + tobasco
cheese + beans + hot sauce
grated sweet potatoes sauteed with onion and cilantro and layered with Jack cheese
caramelized onions and brie.
Why am I even listing these? Just make delicious things.

Staple: African Peanut Stew
http://www.budgetbytes.com/2014/08/african-peanut-stew-vegan/
This was my biggest absolute winner of 2015. I made it like four times. It's really delicious and really filling. It's been popular with a range of people and I love the taste.
Cost: Pretty cheap overall.
Convenience: Really easy. The longest part at this point is chopping up the stuff... if get faster than that... it's gonna be an absolute breeze
Delicious: It's so good. Mmmmmh.
Can you pressure or slow cook it?? I have no idea. Not tried yet
Freeze: Yup. It's not perfect, but it works quite well.
Uses: Make for other people, Eat all week, It's a favorite, use it for anything.
Notes: I actually prefer the non-natural peanut butter with it, extra crunchy versions. I've tried it with kale, but like it better with the collard greens. If you use the whole bunch of collard greens instead of half, it makes the flavor quite a bit less sharp, buuuut you get way more healthy greens so it's a tough call. I trade off like every time I make it. . The ginger is super important to it, if it's not fresh, it's just not as good. The best Tom suggested putting it on toast and it was super good -- bet it would also be amazing on naan or jasmine rice.
