You have to hightlight the text with your mouse, then right click. If nothing is highlighted...

then "note this" won't show up. Only the highlighted text will be added to your notebook.

Are you highlighting the text you want to note?

I made up a recipe for this, Marianne. I grilled the corn, tossed the red onion, tomato

cilantro and I think I diced a cuc. Dressed it with a light vinaigrette made with champagne vinegar.

BLACK BEAN, CORN & PEPPER SALAD

BLACK BEAN, CORN & PEPPER SALAD

30 oz cooked black beans (2 cans or 1/2 pound dry beans cooked according to directions on package)
1 & 1/2 cup frozen corn, defrosted in colander in sink
1 large red pepper, medium dice
2 small fresh jalapeno chiles stemmed, deveined, seeded, very small dice (1/16 inch)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
1/4 lime juice FRESH
2 Tb salad oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

I much prefer to use dry beans I soak overnight & cook because I don't like the "canned" taste and I think the canned ones are cooked too soft for this recipe. Also I usually double the recipe because if I'm cooking the beans, hey, might as well use the whole package. This makes a lot but it does keep and travel well.

You can add corn to this Quinoa and Black Bean Salad

I make one similiar to this, but add minced red onion and roasted ground cumin...

the cumin really adds a wonderul flavor. For a "thinner" version, you can omit the oil and just use the fresh lime juice. You'll never miss the oil. This salad is one of my favorites.

it was so NOT a pretty sight that i am determined to lose 50# before i start to exert gravitational attraction to nearby objects.

 

[marianne]

Dawn, I made the bean salad in cilantro vin. over the weekend and used it as a dip too. Really good

I used less oil and plain vinegar and added a few pickled jalapenos and black beans to the dip. It is a very nice recipe.
