Nearly 26 years ago as a new bride, I made a liver casserole. No one has let me forget it.

Snow on the Mountain Green Beans
I halved this recipe for just two. I boiled the beans in chicken bouillon. Be sure not to overcook the beans since you are going to cook them a little in the frying pan. I put 2 T. EVOO in the frying pan along with 2 cloves of minced garlic. I cooked the garlic for a little while and then added the drained beans. I poured a couple of teaspoons of rice vinegar on it along with the sea salt and pepper. I also squeezed a couple of lemon wedges over the bean/garlic mixture. Then after mixing all well I topped with the feta and let sit for about 5 min. until the feta warmed up some. I think next time I'll use a little lemon zest too. This was wonderfu.

Spicy Black Bean Cakes
Use 2/3 can of refried beans and 1 can of rinsed and mashed black beans, 2 Cups shredded sweet potato, 1 cup of chopped cilantro, 5 cloves minced garlic, 1 sliced and seeded jalapeno, 1/2 tsp. red pepper, 2 tsp. cumin, 2 beaten eggs, and 1/2 cup rolled oats. In skillet with 2 T. EVOO, saute garlic and jalapeno. Add sweet potatoes. Cook for 10 min. on med.-low heat. Remove from heat. Let cool for a few minutes. Add Everything to mashed beans and mix well. Put mixture into refrigerator for at least an hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pat out into 16-18 patties. Bake 20-25 min. turning over midway. The 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/2 chopped cilantro, 1/2 lime juiced and zested, sauce is really good.

Lemon-Pepper Salmon
Added 1/2 cup of oil packed sun-dried tomatoes. This was amazing. I skipped the couscous for mashed potatoes, but it probably would have been better with a rice pilaf.
