Joneses?
Quoted message said:Whew - I've been taking a cooking siesta for awhile, and boyoboy y'all
been talking a lot.
Anyways, I experimented with the Black Bean and Corn Salad idear and
came up with this. But it might need one extra eensy teensy flavor
upper. Dunno, I'm open for suggestions. Bacon might be nice.
It's real pretty! Yellow and bright green and red and loved the
orange carrot strips. Hominy I think is more digestible than regular
corn; soy is famous for nutrition.
Edrena, eating healthier in the new year. Except for oreos.
Hosoboser
(Hominy & Soybean Salad on the Border)
(edamames!)
1 package (12 oz) frozen shelled soybeans. Cook, drain & cold rinse.
They will keep their texture.
1 16 oz. can hominy corn, drained
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
3 green onions, chopped
2 ribs celery, sliced on the bias
Had 1/2 little package of prepared carrot strips, too.
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
salt & pepper to taste
Big handful of fresh cilantro, chopped & garnish
Squirt or two of lime juice
Mix it all together, better chilled to blend flavors for an hour or
six. With no other dressing, probably pretty safe to tote for a
picnic.
Sounds delicious, Edrena! Here's another...
