Instantcrazy's Journal, 17 September 2014

Haven't weighed myself for days. I'm a little bit afraid to. That and I don't currently reside in the same house as my scale.

Made a weird dinner last night. Everyone who ate it liked it it was just a very dark shade of greenish black. I sauteed onions and yellow and orange peppers tomatoes green olives black beans spinach and quinoa. It was tasty but I think the black beans made it really dark and it probably would have been better to use fresh spinach but that was all I had. For seasoning I used soy sauce balsamic vinegar a little bit of sugar and I cooked the quinoa in vegetable broth. I would definitely make it again just maybe change the beans and the vegetable choices.

Half a day off tomorrow I'm so excited! I might get around to making those black bean brownies I want to try.

I like adzuki beans in many things. Sounds like they would be good instead of the black beans.

I have never tried adzuki. I definitely need to open up my bean repertoire. I think I may have to go online to find some new varieties.

Adzuki beans are also sold as small red beans, they have one small white spot on them. I've recently found them, mayo-coba and cranberry beans at Walmart (not somewhere I usually buy groceries), surprising because I have been buying them at ethnic markets and could not find cranberry beans anywhere. I was in Walmart for something one day and remembered I needed split peas, did not want to make an extra stop, saw them in with the beans.

Do they sell them dried or canned? I really try not to buy groceries at walmart, but I suppose they can't do too much to beans.

Dried.. I don't either but the day I discovered them, I figured dried split peas, was out of patience for stores. That doesn't take much for me LOL.

It was yummy I just don't recommend using black and green foods lol. Wholefoodnut I went by Walmart and saw all the beans they have there I couldn't believe their selection! I'm so excited thank you! I would have never looked there.

YW. Me either, grins. Just happened. My current favorite white ones are the Mexican mayo-coba. I need to be brave and see what else they have hiding. I usually escape from Walmart weird shoppers as fast as I can.
