Do you ever feel like you are in the Chopped Kitchen? This salad came from such an experience. After opening the cupboard below the sink, I realized that my sweet potatoes had to be used ASAP. However, I desperately wanted a salad.
Last week I warned you that this recipe includes a weird ingredient, but there are just some risks you have to take when celebrating National Black Bean Month.
Is there a more classic combination in the USA than peanut butter and jelly? Our children are raised on the sweet sandwich from an early age, and we have translated those flavors to many other treats.
Did you know that almost 14% of people think that cilantro tastes like soap? It’s true, and it’s completely scientific.
Here’s a little known fact about me (or maybe it is a well-known fact): I love Veggie Tales. I grew up on regular doses Esther, Jonah, and King George and the Rubber Ducky (on VHS of course). I had the Madame Blueberry card game. I often fell asleep while listening to the audio cassette tape of Daniel. As time passed, my family had DVDs of Wizard of Ha’s, Lord of the Beans, and Sumo of the Opera. We knew every lyric to every song on Veggie Rocks. We even met Bob and Larry!
To this day, I regularly quote Veggie Tales. This is one of the scenes I have perfected:
You can’t eat strawberries without bananas!
So if we are celebrating National Strawberry Month, we need to have some bananas, too!
This chia pudding incorporates strawberries, bananas, and Coconut Macaroon Nut Butter!
If you have never made chia pudding, there is something you need to know. The chia seeds absorb a lot of the liquid, making the pudding thicker as it sets. When you make this pudding at night and let it sit until morning, you will get a thick, creamy pudding. If you don’t wait, you will basically be drinking milk with raw chia seeds.
But trust me, this is worth the wait!

P.S. – I am linking up with Angie and her cohost, Antonia @ Zoale.com, for Fiesta Friday.
A few months ago, I subscribed to a YouTube channel called Eat the Pizza.
On every episode, Christian and Alyssia create uniquely-flavored pizzas or pizza-flavored things. One challenge they haven’t tackled (but definitely should) is revamping a frozen pizza.
What would you do-oo-oo-oo for a Klondike bar?
Now that you are considering all sorts of crazy feats, let’s switch gears and chat about the great month of March. I love March for several reasons.
