Before I Go...
Chipotle, Corn and Black Bean Stew from VwaV is a family favorite now. Fresh corn really makes a difference in this concoction. The lime zest adds an interesting dimension to the flavor. I use diced instead of crushed canned tomatoes and it works great, especially the fire-roasted kind. I have frozen black beans that need to be used up so I was a little generous on that side... and with the cumin.
Inspired by the above stew, here's my Southwestern Salad version. Such a refreshing mix, especially with (again) fresh corn, and other organic goodness. Where's the avocado?

Great southwestern soup Kai. I am glad to see you posting again (even though I am days late). I commented back to you (very long) on my blog but I deleted it accidentally. I was happy to see you there.
The food looks great and that "different hands, same story" is so cute! It's so nice to see children gobblin' up those greens (or anything not artifically colored and unprocessed).
I just made that stew for the first time last week and loved it. I used diced tomatoes as well, since I have a much easier time finding organic ones of those than the crushed ones. VWAV hasn't let me down yet.
Yum! Way to capture the beauty of that stew. :) cherie
Kai, your stew pictures look gorgeous. I love that stew, but my pics never come out that pretty. I like your salad version too.
It's good to see a post from you again. I've missed seeing you around! Take care!
Looks so good and healthy. Great shot of the lil asparagus muncher.
that last shot is precious. i'll have to try the stew.
Everything looks great. Glad to see you around again.
The stew and the salad look great. This looks perfect for a cold winter day.
Great photo there at the bottom. CAUGHT IN THE ACT. That is really so telling. Yummy food, happy girl.
Always good to see you post, Kai. Missing you!!!

Marvelous timing ... I've got some black beans in the kitchen and was looking for something nice to do with them when I tripped across your blog. Serendipity.
Cheers!
