Unchained Recipe Contest - Grilled bean and cheese sandwich with sweet poato chips
This a remade grilled cheese and french fry meal from any typical restaurant. I love grilled cheese but it typically has no nutritional value as it's just bread and cheese! The beans in this re-made grilled cheese add fiber and protein. The brown mustard adds a glue to cheese and gives the sandwich an unexpected tang! The sweet potatoes are much better than normal white potatoes and they are roasted in the oven instead of deep fried. The nutritional information will change based on the brands you use - I am entering the brands I used obviously!
FYI - I've also made this with plain beans that I spiced up myself with a little salsa and mexican spices and then mashed. Feel free to do that if you don't have or like refried beans!Submitted by: LLBEAN75

Robin's Low Sodium Chunky Salsa
This salsa is chunky, tasty, and low in sodium. It's already hard enough to keep sodium levels under the 2300 mg max suggested by the experts. This was one way to keep a delicious treat and not have to worry about my sodium.Submitted by: TRUEBLU4YOU

Southwestern Beans & Rice
Brought To Your Kitchen From SparkPeople Member: LBBROCK195
"
This is one of my favorites because it is easy, fast and simple and versatile. If you like brown rice, I recommend using it in this and all recipes. It takes a bit longer to cook but is worth the wait, for both nutrition and taste. There is an instant brown rice on the market now, too."

Vegetarian Taco Salad
Brought To Your Kitchen From SparkPeople Member: LBBROCK195
"This is another easy, versatile recipe that I use often. I call for canned beans in my recipes, but I like the taste of home cooked beans. If you have a crock pot, there is no reason why you can't have home cooked beans too."

Black bean brownies
They don't taste beany, but they are almost like fudge. Might need even more baking powder. I also threw in a dash of cinnamon, and few drops of hazlenut syrup.
I did have one roommate say they tasted like refried beans, but that's only because I told him the ingredient list before he ate them. Everyone who I didn't mention the black beans too commented on how rich and yummy they were!
I will admit though, this recipe needs some more tweaking. Caloric values based on tiny brownies (I cut up my pan 5x5 for 25 brownies at less than 100 calories each, if you cut 4x4 and have 16 brownies they're closer to 150 each)Submitted by: ACOUSTICKITTY
