As Promised

I mentioned hubby's daily work snack last week.
It is a different black bean brownie recipe.
I make at least one 8 x 8 pan a week cut into 9 pieces.
Two pieces go to work each day to be devoured mid morning.
They are a good source of proteint (beans and eggs)
and use honey as a sweetener (a win in our book).
For me they are are a win because they mix up in the VITAMIX
and quickly dump in the pan.

Here's the recipe from our friend Dr. Axe (He specializes in fixing "gut" issues.)

Black Bean Brownies

1 can 15 ounce black beans, drained
½ cup cacao powder
4 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
¾ cup raw honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
½ cup gluten-free flour (you can use regular all purpose as well)
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ cup water

DIRECTIONS:
Blend all ingredients together.
(I add the ingredients from bottom to top for ease of blending)
Grease 8 x 8 pan.
Bake for 40 min. at 350 degrees.


Today, we are feeling minor effects of Tropical Storm Irma.
A lot of rain and occasional wind gusts.
I have seen a few broken branches so far ...
Weather in the 60's today,
so I made a warm pot of chili and some corn bread muffins for dinner ...
 will also be good in hubby's lunch tomorrow.
