What's for dinner tonight?



Unfortunately, the picture does not do it justice. This was another great vegetarian meal we consumed for dinner. A homemade black bean burger with bits of cilantro and red onion melded into the pattie,slices of crisp green pepper, juicy tomato, creamy avocado, pepper jack cheese, tangy tomato and corn salsa all between a ciabatta bun,accompanied by sweet potato fries. Yum!

Black beans are a very inexpensive way to get your protein,fiber, folate, antioxidants, as well as B vitamins, iron, magnesium,copper and zinc.
Black beans have numerous health benefits and are low in calories.
I buy them dry, in a bag. Just soak them in a pan with water overnight and then boil till tender.
