My family is all vegetarian, so we have recipes coming out our ears.. I've started posting them at http://veggie-recipe.blogspot.com. It's mostly dinner favorites, but all are healthy vegetarian choices. I provide any calorie and fat info that's been written down, but people with specifics might want to calculate things out. (I'll get to work on that if I have the patience ) Anyway, I hope people will enjoy these recipes as much as we do!

Since i live alone, I try to make about 3-4 recipes a week and just freeze them until it's ready to eat. My favorite has been a bean burrito that tastes great cold or hot!

1 cup salsa
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn (optional, but i add it because it fills me up more)
4 wheat tortillas
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon FF cheddar cheese (optional)

Mix salsa, beans, corn and spices together in a pan on medium heat. Cover and heat for 10 minutes or until done. The salsa and spices gives it a nice kick!

I love taking this to work for lunch as its a quick filling lunch, but i also love throwing it on top of a bed of greens for a nice healthy taco salad.
