Mediteranian beans

This another easy bean dish. Its basically the same recipe as the other one but with a different flavor twist

Ingredients
2 cans of chick peas
2 tomatoes, skinned and diced
2 tblspns rosemary
1 large onion diced
6 cloves of garlic
1 red pepper diced.
Salt and pepper to taste

Saute onions in some oil (2-3 tblspns of olive oil) until tender, then add garlic and pepper. Cook until soft but still somewhat firm. Add beans, tomatoes, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 15 minutes.

I eat in a bowl with some blue cheese on top but its ok in a tortilla. The wife likes this recipe better than I do.

Mile High Pancakes

I love pancakes and the cottage cheese makes them very fluffy! I totally stole the idea from a Lee Child novel, the omnipotent jack reacher makes them for some kids.

Ingredients
1 cup of oats
1 cup of white flour (this doesn't work with whole wheat)
2 tblspn sugar (or honey)
4 tsp baking powder
2 eggs, beaten
4 tblspn cooking oil
1 cup milk
1 cup cottage cheese
1 banana crushed up (optional)

Mix all ingredients together, put dry ones in first to make your life easier. Heat frying pan with 1 tblspn of cooking on medium for 3-4 minutes. Put mixture in 1/4 cup increments. Flipping when bubbly, cook until golden brown. Avoid over flipping as it makes it mushy.

Add ins
- blueberries, fresh or frozen
- chocolate chips
- Granola
---Just add in after your put the mixture in the frying pan, on top of the batter it will sink in.

easy chipolte black beans

This is a very easy dish, I often make it on a Sunday night and eat it for lunch during the week. Its quite filling and dirt cheap to boot.

Ingredients
2cans black beans
2 large tomatoes, skinned and diced (or if you are feeling lazy a 14 oz can of chopped stewed tomatoes)
1 tsp cumin
4 cloves of garlic
1 large onion, diced
1 pepper, diced (red or green)
1 tsp sea salt (skip if you get beans with salt in them)
Pepper to taste
1 3oz can of chipolte peppers in adobe sauce, diced

Saute onions in some oil (2-3 tblspns of olive oil) until tender, then add garlic and pepper. Cook until soft but still somewhat firm. Add beans, tomatoes, cumin, salt, pepper and 1/2 the can of the chipolte peppers. Make sure to put the adobe sauce in there. Watch out this gets very hot.

Cook for 10-15 mins. Then eat in a bowl, over rice or in a tortilla.
