Such a long blog title! ha! Anyways, I’m back to cooking! YAY! I seriously never thought I’d like cooking, but I love that I can make yummy food just from following a recipe and tweaking it to my tastes! This week I ventured into Latin territory, as well as, Asian territory!
These ladies at my job RAVE about this Black Bean Soup from weight watchers so you know I had to get the recipe! Black Bean Soup - The recipe is SOOOOO easy I shocked myself!! What I love about the soup is it’s consistency; it is SO light and good for you and SO filling!! Here are my pics – I topped with fat free sour cream, fat free mexi-blend cheese and red peppers – I like EVERYTHING spicy!
Next I was perusing Prevention.com for no real reason and came upon this wonderful recipe for Peanut Noodles with Tofu. I wish this link had a picture but it doesn’t so you will have to enjoy mine!! I made this dish last night and IT.IS.DIVINE!!! Even better, I was able to pick up all of the ingredients at Giant in the ethnic food aisle! This dish can be made spicy or not, but ofcourse, I made mine hella spicy!! I added a side of organic mixed Asian greens and bean sprouts. They said this dish is also really good served cold, so I am going to try it cold today for lunch.
What I love the most about these recipes is how healthy they are. Low in calories but HIGH in taste!! I think I like this whole cooking thing, it’s not so bad after all!
