I have half a can of black beans left over from a recipe (tried a black bean brownie recipe :wink: ) and I'm not sure what to make. I need something easy and fast. Help please...:flowerforyou:

    Black bean salsa is always good. Just mix the beans with canned corn, fresh tomatoes, cilantro & jalapenos (if you like spicy stuff) then squeeze some lime juice on top. Avocados are really good in this also. Also good if you can let it sit to marinate for a couple hours. Tasty on top of grilled chicken. And even better on tortilla chips!

    You can make a breakfast wrap with eggs cheese black beans and salsa (sour cream optional). Or a lunch wrap with chicken black beans and salsa. I love black beans:love:

    Mix with shredded chicken, salsa, jalapenos and cheese...wrap it up in a tortilla...sprinkle cheddar over top and heat it up in the oven...low fat chicken and black bean burritos...you can freeze them for later if you don't want to heat/cook them up now. I always keep a little tray of them in my freezer...delicious. Eat them with light sour cream or yogurt

    Smash em up and add them to anything you're using ground beef, ground chicken or ground turkey in... it makes the meat stretch further.

    Black beans, half an avocado, 1 orange, 1 grapefruit, the juice from one lemon, dash of salt and pepper. Sounds disgusting but it has become my favorite dish EVER! Soooo good! :love: :love: :drinker:
