Menu for the week...





I just got done baking healthy pumpkin muffins with cinnamon chips and banana bread. This can be used as breakfast or dessert this week.

I will add pictures as I make the meals and add them into the recipe. I am worried if I don't do this now I may not get to it every day this week.




















Black Bean and Corn Salsa

For lunch Jeremy and I went to his co-workers house and I brought black bean and corn salsa - oh my goodness is this YUMMY and they thought so too. My friend Margo gave me this recipe. I always double this recipe because it is such a huge hit. I do not double the red wine vinegar because I like to taste the other stuff better. You may want to add more if you double it!
3 Roma tomatoes - diced
3 avocados - diced
1/2 purple onion - diced
1/4 C. cilantro - chopped
1 can shoe peg corn- drained
1 16oz. can black beans - drained and rinsed
4 Tablespoons of lime juice. - I always use 2 limes - even when I double this recipe I still just use 2 limes.
2 T. EVOO
2 T. Red wine vinegar
1 tsp. salt, 1tsp pepper - or add to taste - I usually add a little more.

Mix this all together and serve with multi-grain chips - YUMMY!

An easy way to cut avocados - cut them length wise and twist open. Scoop out the meat from the non pit side. CAREFULLY push your knife into the pit and twist the pit out of the avocado and then scoop out the meat and dice up!
