Black Bean and Apricot Salad
This is a recipe by Patricia Harmon that I found in a magazine about 30 years ago. I wish I could claim it as my own. This has beautiful color and a faint Asian flair in the dressing. It is also such an unusual combination of flavors, but everyone loves it.
Apricot nectar can be tricky to find (check the Latino foods) but I haven’t found a good substitute.
Sundried Tomato and White Bean Soup
This soup is what happened when I wandered around Safeway to see what inspired me. I just wanted to make a healthy soup that I would take to work. I didn’t intend to make a gluten free, vegan dish but that is what happened. And then, even my husband liked it.
