Having company? This is a very fast simple recipe for a healthy appetizer.
Healthy Green Bean Salad Recipe with a festive feel. Can be made in advance.
Very Easy salad made with black beans, avocado, jalapeno and sweet red pepper. I sometimes add a cup of cherry tomatoes cut in half.
There is no right way to make red rice-- Bacon or sausage, celery or green pepper, dry or moist, more or less tomato. Everyone has their favorite method, this is mine.
Garbanzo Bean Stew Serve as a side dish or main dish served over couscous.
Try Chickpea Tabbouleh for a change of pace from regular Tabbouleh. Good salad to take to a picnic.
A friend of ours owned a Greek Restaurant that we visited quite often. I loved her green beans. This is a copy-kat version as she does not give out recipes. Selfish girl! For lent we had this served over rice as dinner.
**lenten version - do not sautee onions and garlic - just add to the geens and tomatoes.
Classic favorite. Campbells created this recipe in 1955 and it is still an all time favorite.
A little twist on the traditional version of hummus. The green onion and cayenne pepper give it a little heat, the lemon gives it a little tang.
Middle Eastern Pilaf. Great for holiday entertaining.
Hearty meatless paella. The lentils more than make up for the lack of chicken or seafood that is usually in a traditional paella.
For a vegetarian or lenten version of Spinach and Lentil Soup omit the ham and use vegetable broth in place of chicken bouillon.
This vegetarian dish has a wonderful blend of spices and tangy-sweet flavors.
A yummy salsa that can also be a great side dish for a picnic. Extend it even further by serving over shredded iceberg lettuce.
