Vegetarians Rejoice

Healthy, delicious, simple. Though I'm not a vegetarian, I could always go for these things. This can be a starter or a light lunch. Here's a recipe you should try:

  • 3 medium red potatoes
  • 1/2 cup of grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup black beans
  • 3 tablespoons chopped basil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • parmesean cheese
  • salt and pepper
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the potatoes in half and par boil for up to ten minutes in salted water. This means that the potatoes will be about half cooked, stick a knife through one and make sure the potatoe is still a little firm, we are not making mashed potatoes! Once boiled, take out and cut into chunks. Meanwhile, in a bowl mix together the tomatoes, black beans, basil, garlic, olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Pour onto a baking sheet along with the potatoes. Grate a little cheese on top and stir to combine. Put in the oven and cook for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are done. About half way through stir the mixture for even cooking. When done, sprinkle more cheese and serve! Serves 2.
