Here are some of my favorite recipes:
-Black bean and corn salad:
1 can black beans
½ dup canned corn
1 diced tomato
2or 3 chopped scallions
Juice of 1 lime ( lime works better than lemon)
Drizzle of olive oil
Salt & pepper
A good amount of chopped coriander
Mix everything, enjoy!
-Red cabbage and apple salad:
Using food processor, shred ( correct word?) one half of the red cabbage and 2 apples. Add lime juice olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix well, it is very refreshing and eliminates any sugar cravings for me.
-Chicken skewers and roasted veggies:
Marinate chicken breast along with red peppers, onions and tomato in your favorite marinade for 30 min. Assemble the skewers , add salt & pepper and set aside .
In the oven sheet, mix zucchini, white mushrooms and eggplant with some olive oil and balsamic vinegar ( not too much vinegar) salt & pepper ,you can add basil or thyme. I would cut my eggplant a little bigger than the zucchini, maybe double the size of the zucchini pieces because eggplant cooks faster. I cut my mushrooms in half or in quarters depending on their size.
I cook everything at the same time in the oven, I put the roasted veggies in an oven sheet ( the one that comes with the oven when you buy one) put the top on the sheet and cook the skewers on top of it (the top has openings so that the juices fall in the sheet, sorry for the terrible description.
These are really yummy recipes, I hope you try them!!
