Fireworks Black Bean Salsa Recipe
Monday, July 05, 2010
I posted my recipe for Fireworks Black Bean Salsa as part of the Top Anticancer Chef challenge.
It contains lots of anticancer foods: black beans (high in fiber, protein), cherry tomatoes (vitamin A and lycopene), mango (beta carotene), turmeric (curcumin) and black pepper, ginger, onions, orange and lime juice (flavonoids) , and olive oil (healthy fat).
Please vote for me! Thanks to all your votes, I will be receiving a copy of Dr. David Servan-Schreiber's Anticancer A New Way of Life book. Fireworks Black Bean Salsa
1 can Black Beans 1/2 cup frozen Corn Kernels
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, cut into 1/4" pieces
1 medium Mango, cut into 1/4" cubes
1/4 cup Cilantro, finely chopped
2 tablespoons Red Onion, finely chopped
Dressing Ingredients:
1 teaspoon fresh Ginger, minced
2 tablespoons fresh Lime Juice
2 tablespoons fresh Orange Juice
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
Mix black beans, corn, tomatoes, mango, cilantro and red onion together in medium size bowl. In a small bowl, mix dressing ingredients together. Pour dressing over bean mixture and toss. Chill before serving. Serve over whole grain pilaf or with baked tortilla chips.
Soothing Smoothies {Mango Coconut Smoothie}
My poor friend "B" is suffering from mouth sores, just over a week after her 1st chemo treatment. Chemo can cause a number of unpleasant side effects, including a sore mouth and trouble swallowing. That's why smoothies are great -- they're soothing, smooth, nutritious, and go down easy.
