so this isn’t *really* a recipe. it’s just an idea i’ve seen on various blogs. a very great idea, especially for someone like me who: 1) always has extra bananas hanging around my house; 2) has a stomach that ice cream hates (or is it vice versa?); and 3) has a bottomless sweet tooth that i’m always trying to ignore/satiate with healthy foods.
i feel like every recipe that i’ve shared lately is a fast weeknight meal. nothing’s fancy. nothing’s lengthy. just simple, yummy food. and yep, you guessed it, this is another quick meal.
about a month ago, mike and i hosted a movie club night at our place. we decided to make tamales and black beans for our friends (i know, i know: where’s the tamale recipe? it’s coming soon, i promise). after our friends had eaten their fill, we had a lot of black beans left over from the feast. i mean A LOT. plus, we had some extra salsa, corn, zucchini, and avocado. and we had a ton of quinoa left from making these quinoa cakes the week before. so what are two people who hate to throw food away going to do with that situation? make hippie bowls!
