16 Bean Soup, what?!

I used a dry bean mix of 16 kinds of beans (plus barley) found at the store. The brand was Fiesta, which is accurate, because these beans totally looked like a party: colorful, in all shapes and sizes.

I agree that the colors of the cooked beans don't look so great, but I assure you the taste is off the chain! I'm pretty sure I owe it all to the chicken bouillon cube (vegan) I used for the broth. Also, the salty tortilla chips were great and reminded me of Tortilla Soup. I can imagine making tortilla chip strips for Tortillas soup in the future.

Super Bowl Snacks

Super Bowl Sunday presents a fantastic opportunity for me to showcase my traditional American culinary skills. jk! This is what I made:

-Homemade tortilla chips, baked and lightly salted
-Rosemary Garlic Hummus, laboriously mashed by hand (I probably won't do this ever again.)
-Salad Rolls with Peanut Sauce

I haven't watched a Super Bowl game in a handful of years, but I look forward to being with friends today to eat snacks and watch the "big game". Also, I like that there are millions of other people all having potlucks with their friends today, too. It's like America's potluck day!
