Black Bean Salsa

Or you can call this black bean salad. Either way, it is a delightful blend of veggies, lime, cilantro, and beans! Ingredients: 2 cans (15oz) black beans 1 red pepper, diced 1 orange pepper, diced ½ C red onion, diced 1 can (15.25 oz) corn, drained 2 cloves garlic, minced ½ bunch cilantro, chopped 3-4 T olive oil 4 T lemon juice 2 T lime juice Salt, to taste Instructions: Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let marinate at least 1 hour before serving.  Yummy with chips or by the spoonful!

Lemon Pie

Yummmmmy! A great addition to this pie is the Crumble Nut crust in 7 Secrets cookbook as well as the Whipped Topping Recipe in 7 Secrets! Ingredients: Lemon Pie (made a double recipe to fill a large graham cracker crust) 1 1/2 cups pineapple juice 1/3 cup honey 1 T orange juice concentrate 1 tsp vanilla 1/3 cup cornstarch or arrowroot 1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh is best) 1/2 tsp lemon extract Yummy addition I just learned: 1 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen      (optional) 1 large prebaked Graham Cracker Pie Crust or Crumble Nut Crust Instructions: Cook all over medium heat until thick.  Keep stirring so it does not burn or scorch. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Gently place berries on prepared crust; carefully pour warm lemon mixture over berries.  Refrigerate until well set.
