Black Bean Medley

 

 

 

 

We've frequented the farmers' market in nearby Denver

a few times in the last month.

It was fabulous to find a local organic farmer

selling his produce there.

This lettuce mix from Piedmont Homestead

was absolutely scrumptious and I've enjoyed adding it to 

my own lettuce blends from our garden.

If you get there early enough, 

they have additional garden offerings like carrots and peppers.

The bonus is that the bags they use for containing their wares

are compostable.

Win-win!

 

 

 

The peppers I purchased from them

were added to a cast iron pan

along with red cabbage, onions, garlic and black beans.

Just a few simple ingredients,

but oh-so satisfying.

 This combination would be tasty over baked potatoes,

rice or quinoa,

but I chose to add it to some of the salad mix

from Piedmont Homestead and topped with my honey mustard dressing.

This is such a flavorful meal 

that tastes even better the next day!
