Hi Friends! Today we have a special visitor on The Bean. Brittany is one of the few bloggers I've actually met in real life! She has an adorable blog of her own that you should definitely check out...and more importantly, we share a love of our ...
Spice Dusted Mexican Wontons
We've got a winner dinner here my friends. Hubby says it should be a feature on the Bean- that means he likes it :) As I mentioned earlier this week, I picked up some wontons last week and have been dreaming up some Mexican wontons for a while ...
WIAW: Labor Day Eats
It's WIAW! Hopefully everyone enjoyed their long weekend as much as I did! Between passing my test on Friday and having the whole day Monday to spend with my hubby, I had a grand old time :) On Labor Day, we took advantage of our day off by ...
Mini Pesto Bruschetta Cups
I bought a package of wonton wrappers at the grocery store last week and I've had tons of ideas spinning through my head for the past few days about how I should use them up. I've finally settled on a Mexican version that I'm planning to make for ...
Pesto Potato Salad
On Saturday we went to the Farmer's Market and I came home with, among other things, a GIANT bag of basil. I immediately came home and made a batch of pesto. I used this recipe and it turned out great! Then I immediately made these breadsticks ...
Phase 1 Complete
In December of 2006, I graduated from college the first time with a BA in Psychology. After working a few jobs totally unrelated to that major, I made the decision to go back to school again. In January 2009, I began taking classes for a Dietetic ...
Veggie Month-Week 4
We did it, friends! A successful veggie month. In the words of the hubby, "it flew by!" And it did! So what did we eat during week 4? Hubby was out of town over the weekend so we had some different meals. Thursday: Lentil & Veggie Pot Pies ...
WIAW: Nut Butter
Happy WIAW! I'm just gonna go ahead and put this out there: I'm kinda obsessed with this Cinnamon Raisin Nut Butter I made the other day. I've probably gone through 1/2 the jar in about 2 days. Please don't judge me...it's been a stressful ...
Watermelon Chickpea Salad
This could also be called Clinging-to-the-end-of-summer-fruit-and-chickpea-salald. Last night we grabbed what is probably one of the last watermelons of the season while we were grocery shopping. I used one of my favorite kitchen tools, the melon ...
Cinnamon Raisin Nut Butter
Hi Friends! Here's a little treat to help get you through your Monday. If you're anything like me, before you discovered the blog world, the only nut butter you ever ate was peanut butter. Over the past year, I've broadened my horizons a bit ...
Semi-Silent Saturday
Good Morning, friends! Just popping in to tell you to go check out my guest post on my best bloggie pal Sarah's blog. She's getting MARRIED today and I'm so happy to be filling in for her while she's away. Since we're right in the middle of back ...
The Bean Turns 1!
Happy Bloggy Birthday to The Lean Green Bean! It's pretty hard to believe that it's been an entire year since I sat down and wrote my very first post! You can check it out here if you're a new reader :) hilarious if you ask me! Since this is how ...
Veggie Month-Week 3
Hi Friends! Another veggie week is in the books! This week we had a few dinners where we ate different things...but it definitely didn't feel like a chore to make them. The only struggle I had this week was when I made myself some summer veggie ...
WIAW: Exam Day
Welcome to another WIAW, my friends! Here's the thing about me...I have a nervous stomach. That means, that on test days, I either have to get up and eat waaaaaaaay before (like 4 hours) my test...or I can't eat until it's over. Like I ...
Buckwheat Molasses Bread
Hi Friends! I'm busy today taking my last final of the quarter and then getting things in order to start studying for my registration exam so I'll leave you with a fun little treat. I recently wrote a guest post for one of my blogging buddies ...
Sweet & Spicy Baked Tofu
Hi Friends- We're truckin' right along with veggie month. I feel like the end is going be here before we know it! When we went to the grocery store last week, I picked up two more packages of tofu to experiment with and last night I decided to ...
No Bake Chocolate PB Oatmeal Balls
Hi Friends! Yesterday I was looking for a quick treat I could whip up that were semi-healthy. After I'd settled on a no-bake cookie ball of sorts, I did my prerequisite googling. Then I did my favorite thing: recipe combining. I started with ...
Spicy Garlic Flatbread Crackers
Last night at the grocery store, the hubby bought some cheap beer. Have you heard of it? It's like PBR, but with a different name. He's been seeing it pop up at bars lately and wanted to try it out. The best part about cheap beer (to me) is that I ...
Veggie Month-Week 2
Well friends, we've made it through another week! We had one obstacle this week but I'm proud to say we overcame it! We had a wedding to attend on Saturday night and had chosen our meals prior to deciding to do veggie month. We tried to get our ...
WIAW- At Home
It's WIAW! This week I thought I'd share what I eat on my (school)work from home day. On Fridays, everything moves just a little bit slower around here. I don't have to go to work. I don't have to go to class. I don't have to go to my internship. ...
