Sweet potato, Black bean, Quinoa salad

So funny story to go along with my recipe….. mom and I had a big bowl of this today for dinner with a drink of apple cider. Two times I tried to stop her from pouring the apple cider from the jug over her salad like it was cereal. I put cider in her drinking cup and moved the jug to the far end of the table, but she still dumped it from her cup into her salad. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ (it’s like taking care of a 2 year old sometimes)

I don’t know how that tasted but she seemed to like it fine, ate it all up.

So here’s my NEW IMPROVED recipe- thanks to mom

SWEET POTATO, BLACK BEAN, QUINOA SALAD-

2 sweet potatoes diced into 1/2 inch pieces

1 can of black beans

1 can of corn

1 cup of quinoa

2 cups of Veggie broth

1 tsp garlic salt

1/2 tsp of paprika

Cook at 375 for 45 minutes covered, 15 minutes uncovered, rest 5 minutes for liquid to absorb.

(1/2 cup of apple cider dumped on top*optional) haha

We also put together her container gardens, but I didn’t get enough soil. So back to Home Depot tomorrow morning, boy that place sees us coming, and walks all the way to the bank laughing.

Pictures to follow….

  1. So refreshing to see all that you do for your mom and adventures you have with her, and because of her. You have some excellent material and information for a book to help people going through what you are going through. How is KRISTY working out?
