RE: FRUITS AND VEGGIES MONDAY[]QUESADILLAS WITH BLACK BEAN & CORN SALSA
We have LOADS of organic black beans available here in Northern Thailand - they're grown by the indigenous mountain people - and so I'm always looking for new and innovative ways to cook and use them.
NICE idea! I was mildly culture-shocked to see both canned corn and canned beans - although you CAN buy them here, they're so easy to buy and prepare fresh. It's literally been about 20 years since I bought canned anything other than olives and cat food.
Do you make your own tortillas? I want to learn since you need to take out a bank loan to afford them in Asia. :)
Lovely meal suggestion and I'm gonna try it too! With some local fresh steamed corn cut off the cob and local black beans that I prepare once every week in the slow cooker overnight. :) Easy.
Hope to see LOTS more black bean meal ideas!!
Thank you @artemislives, I used the can beans and corn because they were already in my pantry. I try to create dishes with what I have on hand at that time. On my paleo diet, I don't eat corn or beans but my husband does. He became a vegan earlier this year, so I try to create healthy vegan dishes for him. But when I ate beans, I cooked the dried version. When I prepared red beans and rice, I would cook the red beans in my crook pot.
The tortillas that I make are not not made from corn but with almonds flour and other ingredients. I use them for wraps or sandwiches.
Have you tried making black bean soup? It is so good. I made a big pot for my husband last month.
Thank you for commenting on my post.
