WHITE BEAN & RADISH SALSA
I love making salsa, especially non traditional versions of salsa like this white bean and radish salsa! Salsa is made using lots of fresh vegetables and herbs. It's a perfect appetizer and snack anytime! I created this version, because I had an abundance of radishes from a school garden. Radishes are a great topping for salads, tacos, even pickled, but my favorite way to eat them is in this salsa! White beans adds some protein which makes it an extra healthy, nutrient rich snack.

QUINOA BLACK BEAN SALAD/TACOS
I wanted to share one of my favorite dishes to make that uses my favorite grain, Quinoa. If you are not familiar with quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) here are some facts about this wonderful grain. Quinoa has a high nutritional value and provides all of the essential amino acids. It is not only high in protein, but high in iron, vitamin B3, vitamin B6 and phosphorus. Quinoa is also gluten free. My Quinoa Black Bean Salad/Tacos are very healthy and easy to make. This dish is delicious on its own as a salad or served in a soft shell taco, topped with avocado and salsa, if desired. It can be served hot or cold. It is great to pack for picnic lunches or to keep in the refrigerator for a quick lunch or dinner. Ingredients:
