Grilled Corn with Spicy Black Beans

Grilled Corn and Spicy Black Beans

 

Hi Friends!  I am still here.  Sorry it’s been forever since I’ve been in touch and shared a new recipe with all of you.  Motherhood + work + life has been keeping me busy!  Rest assured I’ve still been cooking healing and delicious food, but I haven’t often had the time to take pretty photos in good lighting in order to share them with you.  Sigh.  First world problems.

So here’s a compromise, decent photos taken with my iphone of an excellent recipe that is definitely worth sharing.  It’s a good practice in letting go of perfection, and in eating as much summertime grilled corn as possible.

Grilled corn is one of my favorite treats this time of year (here’s one of my other go-to recipes!).  It’s one of those things that you can really only have in peak summer when you have so much extra local produce that you are able to grill corn for leftovers.  I love fresh corn hot off the grill, but also really enjoy using the leftovers in a variety of dishes.  This one keeps things simple, but add a nice boost of protein from the black beans and a kick of spice from the jalapenos.

One of the things I like most about this dish is it’s versatility.  We enjoyed this hot out of the pan one night, mixed into a green salad the next day, and rolled up in a corn tortilla with melted cheese later in the week.  It’s a great way to add protein, flavor, and color to nearly any dish.  Plus my daughter loves it!  Hope you do too.

  • Post-Thanksgiving miso broth 👌 Perfect after all the indulgence. Miso broth is one of my favorite healing foods. It’s fabulous for gut health and immunity, plus it tastes so good! Mix a heaping teaspoon into a mug of boiling water and add whatever else you’d like (seaweed, fire cider, leftover veggies etc.). #selfcare #winterhealth #guthealth
  • Annual Thanksgiving Day swim. Obviously I was taking a photo on the beach and not in the water with my crazy cousins and uncles. This photo makes it look warm, but it wasn’t! Probably about 45 degrees with a brisk wind.  Crazy, but definitely good for the lymphatic system 🤷‍♀️ #familytradition #freezing
  • Impossible to get everyone to look at the camera at the same time 🤷‍♀️ But such a great family vacation!
  • So much fun visiting the @beautycounter #Boston pop-up today and introducing @meganlevans to one of my favorite clean beauty brands! Be sure to mention my name if you decide to go shop ❤️
