Grocery Store WARS! Coming to a Grocery Store near YOU!

You've just gotta watch this. It's too hokey not too, (and you know I love hokey things.) I'll never be able to look at a stalk of broccoli in quite the same way.



Now I am not so much in to "Organic" as I am a believer in an (UN)common sense when it comes to gardening. NO herbicides and NO pesticides. This is how we grew our food for generations. Connect with your local (Un)common sense farmer.

'Nuf said.

Southwestern Coleslaw

I haven't made this, but it looks like something that I'd like, and it would go great with the Pinto and Beans Dinner. Think I'm gonna have to try this.

Plus, with summertime coming up there is less chance of getting "the gift that keeps on giving" because there is no mayonnaise in the recipe.

Well we'll go swimmin' every day 

No time to work just time to play 

If your folks complain just say, 

"It's summertime" 

And every night we'll have a dance 

Cause what's a vacation without romance 

Oh man this jive gets me in a trance 

Because it's summertime 

Garbanzo, Tomato and Pesto Salad

Garbanzo, Tomato and Pesto Salad

4 Tomatoes
1 heaping Tablespoons Basil Pesto
3 can Garbanzo Beans, drained and rinsed
Parmesan or Romano Cheese (or anything you have)

Toss a pile of chopped tomatoes with some pesto, stir in 3 cans of garbanzo beans (rinse them first), sprinkle on some freshly grated parmesan or pecorino romano, and in less than two minutes you'll be digging into a scrumptious and healthy salad.

I've decided to put this on my blog, because we make this so often. I think it is like heaven in a dish. I love each of the ingredients separately or together. I'd make a terrible vegetarian, but I definitely could eat this several times a week. I'm going to experiment with garbanzo beans in my garden this year. It is one of my favorite beans.
