1. Yummy Bowls
1. Yummy Bowls
This is a super "yummy" vegetarian dish we have been enjoying at our house.To start you layer brown rice, black beans, salsa, Cheddar cheese, diced tomato, fresh avocado slices, sour cream, back olives and cilantro. Then top with Yummy Sauce.
YUMMY SAUCE
Serves 8, 4 cups
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup almonds
1/3 cup nutritional yeast (available at Whole Foods)
1/2 cup chickpeas or garbanzo beans cooked
1/4 cup soy beans (cooked) (we have used silken tofu before)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup lemon juice
1-2 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon cilantro
1. In blender or food processor bean almonds, beans and oil
2. Add other ingredients and puree until creamy and smooth
3. Cover and let stand in refrigerator for one hour
4. Don't cover to tight, remember the yeast
It is quite tasty and usually a lot of sauce left over to put in other recipes as well, like burritos, stuffed peppers, etc.

2. An interesting read
Christian and I have not been eating meat for the past 6 months. We recently read Eating Animals and it has reaffirmed to us why we made this decision. I used to be the type of person who knew the meat industry wasn't the best, but didn't care to learn about it because I knew I wouldn't want to eat meat if I did. Now that I am learning about factory farming and the animal slaughter houses I can say this is true. If you are interested in learning about the meat you feed to you and your family I HIGHLY suggest you read this book. We all want to make sure we are taking care of our bodies and I really feel like we should be educated about what we consume.3. A great series
Christian and I have decided we don't want to watch TV this summer, get addicted to more stupid shows; lets face it, nothing too great is on in the summer anyhow. We will watch movies and what not however. If you are looking for something entertaining, well written, well acted and just super creative, we suggest you Netflix the series BREAKING BAD.

We just finished season 2 and we always find ourselves talking about it. Such a great serious that I highly recommend.
