What's Cooking Good Looking?!

Taco Salad
1 can of beans (black, pinto)
Lettuce Greens (spinach, romaine)
Green Onions chopped
2 Tomatoes cubed
1 Avocado cubed
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Crunched up tortilla chips
Salsa


It is not necessary to cook the beans, but I prefer to cook them along with some chopped white onions and lightly season with garlic salt and lawry's seasoning salt.
While the beans cook, prepare the salad.
Treat the crunched tortilla chips as a version of croutons.  The salsa, like the dressing.  I believe that the salsa really makes or breaks the salad.  I recommend using fresh salsa bought from the grocery deli section.  I have enjoyed fresh salsa from Beans & Barley, Elegant Farmer and Metro Mart.

Treat of the Week

Door County Cherry Dessert

1/2 cup of Door County Cherries (these are cherries sweetened, not pie filling)

1 cup of Vanilla flavored yogurt

3-4 crumbled gram crackers

This simple dessert taste more like cheese cake than yogurt and cherries.  Door County Cherries which can be purchased at most Wisconsin Market stores (Outpost, Sendiks, Elegant Farmer, etc. ).
