delicious vegan cassoulet with fresh vegetables and homemade beans

finally bought these suckers after they came through my line at Whole Foods about ten times. they are so good but a little pricey. I'd like to try my hand at homemade kale chips!

what happens when you work at Whole Foods: I got into Kale! my parents are so proud.

before going to brunch with Ashley at Printworks. the weather today was lovely!

an interesting appetizer at Printworks: poached fruit in a spicy broth. it was out of this world and would be amazing over rice pudding

one of the best dishes I've had in Greensboro: lemony golden beets over quinoa/black rice with kale and chickpeas. do I really need to say anything else?

Kale, Bean + Squash Tostadas
----------------------------------------------
-Soak pinto beans overnight and cook according to package directions. Let cool slightly, then mash with some cumin and a little olive oil. Saute dinosaur (lacinato) kale with garlic, olive oil, and red pepper flakes in a pan. Set aside. Add chopped sunburst squash to the pan with a little more oil and cook until soft. Set aside. Add fresh corn kernels and sweet peppers with oil to the saute pan; add onions and cook until done. Toast (blue) organic corn tortillas and top with mashed beans, kale, squash, corn/onions. Top with guacamole or fresh avocado. It's super delicious and easy!
