Part of my new years resolution was to start making one new recipe a month. So what if I missed January, it's never too late to start trying. ;)
While browsing online hungry, I found a facebook picture of something that looked so good!! My friend Nicolette, who is a personal trainer, had posted it with a link to her website. She has great fitness tips & some really good/easy recipes that are nutritionally smart. The name of her site is:
This is so easy & delicious, and I had never thought of doing it before.
ingredients:
Brown rice
(Trader Joe's: this is the best stuff ever, pop it in the microwave and 3 minutes later it's done!)
Salsa
(this stuff adds lots of flavor and is low in calories... thank you again, Trader Joe's!)
Black Beans
(I like low sodium when possible)
-if you use a corn-less salsa, add a can of corn - it tastes good!
Mix it all together
&
BAM
you get this delicious combo!!
I added tortillas to make it a burrito.
It fills you up and has tons of protein. Pretty yummy!!
This has to be one of the first times TL actually loves what I make. ;)
Thanks, Nic!

Umm...yum! And it looks super quick and easy too....even better!
I'm going to have to try this!! Thanks for sharing!
That looks amazing!! I am definitely trying that out this weekend! Thanks!
That looks delicious! I am definitely trying it out this week :) Thanks! xoxo.
Yummy! I'm such a bad cook!
I've never heard of that website, but I'll have to check it out!
I am definitely making this, especially next week when my parents jet off to Miami and I'm alone, scrounging up dinners!
Seriously, this sounds amazing - I'm always up for healthy/delicious meals! :)
I also like to add a little FF sour cream or RF cheese for a little creaminess since I'm addicted to dairy. Also, I can. not. wait. to have a Trader Joe's near me in DC. I love all of their brand of goodies. So needed in Colorado!
Looks great! YUMM!!! and easy too, that's always a good thing :)
That looks delicious, I must try it!
That's so funny, we make something like this at home, but call it meat-bean-rice. Brown rice, ground turkey with taco seasoning, and black beans. Lately we have been cutting out the rice and using lettuce, kind of like a taco salad. I also add a dollop of low fat daisy sour cream and avocado. Yummy!
That looks super delicious! :)
