Gazpacho
When the weather gets warm, I want to turn off the stove and eat something cool, and for me, that's gazpacho. In the past few years we have gotten SO MANY tomatoes from our CSA that I've been reconfiguring this recipe everyway I can think of. You can eat this straight with a spoon, on chips like salsa, and use the leftovers as a pasta sauce. It's so good, and so easy, you'll be adding this as a staple recipe for the summer: Ingredients
1 hothouse cucumber, halved and seeded
Black Bean Soup
My coworked, Sara, introduced me to this amazing recipe, which I've tweaked a little bit. This has become a staple in our house, with my 4 year old requesting it at least once a week. So, I bought a huge case of black beans at Costco and loaded up on chicken stock, since this recipe is SO easy, and SO inexpensive: Ingredients 4 Tbsp. Olive Oil 1 medium onion, finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 teaspoon ground cumin 3 - 15 ounce cans black beans, inlcluding liquid 1 - 14
