Black Bean and Spinach Enchiladas

http://www.thegardengrazer.com/2012/03/black-bean-spinach-enchiladas.html

Just tried these tonight they were great. I love that I made my own enchilada sauce. I didn't use vegetable broth but used chicken broth instead. I also didn't have tomato puree so I used double the amount of tomato sauce and let it boil a little longer. I also added a little more of the seasonings at the end because I wanted it to be spicy. I didn't have cilantro so I just left that out and I substituted the green onions for yellow onion.

  these hit the spot and they were easy! I will definitely make again. I didn't have any cilantro so I left that out and I substituted the red onion for green onion.

Spinach Artichoke Pasta

This was really tasty!!  The only thing I changed was not add any chicken broth or Panko bread crumbs.  I did crumble up some croutons at the end and added it to my own dish.  If you don't like spicy food, you may want to add crushed red pepper and cayenne just to taste. http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2012/10/spinach-artichoke-pasta/

Secretly Healthy Chocolate cookies

http://www.elizasedibles.com/2012/12/16/secretly-healthy-chocolate-brownie-cookies/
  these cookies tasted really good and chocolatey. I made them when mom, ang,and dad came to visit. I didn't tell them there were black beans in them until after they tried them. They all loved them when they didn't know about the black beans. Ang was not a fan after i told her. It was funny. :) Dad loved them either way.

Healthy breakfast cookies

I made these when dad and mom came to visit. They were not a big hit with mom and Ang because they taste healthy but dad liked
them. Next time I'll add more cinnamon for more flavor.
