Chili Spiced Shrimp and Black Beans: New Recipes Thursday

Chili Spiced Shrimp and Black Beans

SuccotashThis is a great kid-friendly meal. It’s a bit spicy, but not too much so, and you can substitute boneless chicken thighs (cut into bite-size pieces) or strips of flank steak for the shrimp.

Think of this as a Mexican stir fry. The idea is to cook each ingredient quickly so that the dish has a bright, fresh, crisp flavor like an Asian stir fry. You can add some fresh cilantro instead of the oregano at the end and it’ll really finish off the dish.

Fusilli with Morels and Roasted Garlic |Low Sodium Version

Morel MushroomsWhen I told a friend that I had some fresh morels, they asked how I was going to prepare them. “As simply as possible” was my reply. There’s so much great flavor in these guys that you don’t need much. Garlic, shallots, butter… that’s all you need.

Polenta and Eggs

Roasted GarlicIf I had a nickel for every time in the last year I have said, “eggs are OK; quit worrying about them,” I would be pretty rich by now. They’re OK and this is a great way to have them. It’s sort of like toad in the hole with great flavorful carbs and rich yummy eggs.
