Tutorial - Black Bean Corn Salsa

One of my favorites.  It is a little spicy but the sweet corn balances it out.  The beans give it that protein punch that I love. The president loves this stuff!

This is by no way my recipe but rather my adaptation of a few recipes smashed together.  So yummy!

Ingredients

• 1 can, 14 ounces, black beans, rinsed and drained
• 2 cups fresh corn kernels
• 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
• 1/2 red onion, chopped
• 1 lime, juiced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil, eyeball it
• 1/3 cup cilantro, finely chopped
• Salt and pepper

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Let stand at least 15 minutes for corn and flavors to combine, then toss and serve. The corn will also place a quick-chill on this easy side-salad.

blue Monday

Really, there is no big reason to be blue lately - - it just seems to happen.  Bummer.

 Not saying the entire day is a waste.  There was the beautiful morning God allowed me to enjoy with P.  The decent run.  The fact that all of the Big Three kids had clean clothes to wear to school.  A good salad for lunch.  Not too shabby.

But before I indulge in making another tray of fudgey brownies I decided to search out things that made me smile (and didn't hinder my 10 lb weight loss that I am still trying to achieve).

So here you go, I hope you find something to make you smile -- I know I did!

So, what makes you smile? What old memories do you like to recall to bring the day back in perspective?
