Using dried beans as part of a winter staple is easy. Soak, let sit and cook. They make the kitchen warm and smell nice. I use a combo of pintos, black beans, red beans, Anazasi beans to add diversity and more nutrition to the mix. Fresh greens over organic blue chips, a few extra veggies – carrots, peppers, and radishes – with avocado and blob on Greek yogurt and a favorite salsa – top with your favorite grated cheese and you are golden! Pair with a good microbrewed beer or homemade marg and it is a small fiesta! Salad! dg
Salads in winter can make the day!
