Sunday Secrets!

I made some new things this weekend and thought I would share my secret recipes.

The first one is a bean salad. I love black beans and so i googled healthy black bean salad. I found a few that looked good so i got the ingredients and made it. At first it didn't taste super yummy so I thought let me try adding something to it. Which i did, so i call this

Yummy Black bean salad!

Ingredients:

1 can black beans drained and rinsed

1 cup corn (i used frozen, you can use can or fresh)

1 tbls olive oil

1 ts ground cumin

1 small tomatoe or a handful of grape/cherry tomatoes

1 avocado

1/2 lime

minced garlic

salt & pepper

Directions:

1. Mix black beans, corn and tomatoes in a bowl.

2. Add in olive oil, cumin and mix

3. salt and pepper and garlic to taste

4. Cut the avocado in half. Chop half and mix in

5. Take the other half and make a guacamole mixture-smash avocado, add garlic and lime juice

6. add guacamole to salad and a the rest of the lime juice.

Enjoy!

The second recipe I made a fruit salad. I had this at a cookout i went to this week and the host told me what was in it so i tried to re-create it and it came out awesome!

Ingredients:

12oz vanilla yogurt(I use greek low sugar high protein yogurt)

about 1/2 cup OJ

1 banana

1 large or two small peaches

about 5 Strawberries

The trick is you want your fruit to be balanced, So if your stawberries are small you will need more than 5.

In a bowl, mix yogurt and oj-you want it to look almost like pudding, or cool whip a little runny but a little fluffy.

Chop up your fruit and mix it.

Enjoy!

Make pudding as usual, Let it sit for about 5 min. Then add the cool whip to the pudding. In your pan place a layer of graham crackers on the bottom,

then layer the pudding, graham crackers, pudding, graham crackers, pudding and graham crackers.

Take the choc. frosting and melt it in the micro for about 30sec.
