Beans are a great plant source of low-calorie lean protein, rich in fiber, minerals & antioxidants and offer many health benefits. I am featuring them on this page to show all the different ways I have incorporated them in a whole variety of recipes, from appetizers, to salads, to soups, to stews, to risotto and even to stuffed peppers! I ‘ll blog about the heartiness of beans this week.
Here is glossary for you to go right to BEANS in my recipes and save you the hassle of having to go looking for them in all the different categories– I will come back and add more as I create them, of course!

I made your Black Bean Tomato Corn Salad with Feta for my students and what a blessing it was! They enjoyed it and so did I. I have also shared it with others and they have enjoyed the ease and simplicity of the recipe as well as the great way to incorporate more beans into their diet.
Thank you for sharing and encouraging people to EAT REAL FOOD! Love it!
