I had black bean chili made in the crockpot yesterday. It was so cold that the crockpot was put on low at midnight, it wasn't yet boiling at 7:30 am. I put a thick towel on top for extra insulation and it was boiling three hours later.
The recipe was tasty but a little too mild. I think I've found a use for the jar of Harissa sauce in the refrigerator.
I made our favorite quinoa salad (Ensalada de Quinoa—on Bob’s Red Mill site with a few personal adaptations) this afternoon. We will have it at dinner with a rotisserie chicken.
