Black beans and rice is one of my favorite meals. They’re tasty, easy, and make great leftovers too. These Adobo Black Bean Bowls with Chipotle Dressing are a great twist with awesome smokey flavor. This comes together quickly, and works well with the Adobo Chicken I made previously, but it’s also a completely satisfying dishRead more
Sister has been raving about this simple tortilla soup for months! Sister is all about a food with lots of toppings, and this soup allows for a ton of options. Black beans make this tortilla soup a hearty vegan dish (depending on the toppings you use). While the original recipe calls for frying corn tortillas,Read more
A while back I made this delicious slow cooker pork. I made a large portion and then froze some of it. So when I needed an easy meal for a busy week night, I pulled out the pork to defrost and used it to make pork tacos. I recommend getting the small, corn tortillas insteadRead more
I’ve been working on collecting recipes that can easily be made with just a couple of pantry items and whatever is in the fridge. This recipe is a good stand-by. It also works great for lunches because it doesn’t have to be served hot and it’s full of protein to keep you full all afternoon.Read more
I made this dish for Tuesday’s School of Christian Living dinner, and it was SUPER popular! I have to admit I was really shocked by how much people liked this meal. I was taking a chance on the raw kale. I love salad and raw veggies, but I know they frequently feel like “health” foodRead more

I wasn’t sure if I was going to post this recipe. It’s not exactly an exciting, standout recipe (glowing review, I know). However, it is convenient and perfect for those times when you know you need to be eating healthy things but just want to stuff your face with the nearest and easiest anything, preferablyRead more
I enjoy experimenting with new black bean burger recipes. There are so many tasty combinations out there that I can’t commit to just one recipe. This recipe caught my eye because of the corn! Sweet corn + spicy + smokey cumin + creamy savory black beans = yum! I definitely enjoyed all the flavorsRead more
I was very intrigued when I first saw this salad. It’s a really unique combination of ingredients that I would have never thought to combine, but I like them all separately, so how could it be bad?

I made these enchiladas for Tuesday’s SCL dinner. They’re a great vegetarian option, with a delicious creamy, slightly sweet flavor to the filling. I used mild salsa and enchilada sauce, but I think they’d be great with a spicier sauce since the sweet potato would help soothe the heat. It’s definitely a flexible recipe, soRead more
