Day 45: Legume, Let God

Combine the creamy pink texture of pinto beans
with a whole grain such as brown rice
and you have a virtually fat-free high quality protein meal.


Pinto beans have a beige background strewn with reddish brown splashes of color. They are like little painted canvases, à la Jackson Pollack; hence their name "pinto," which in Spanish means "painted." When cooked, their colored splotches disappear, and they become a beautiful pink color. (Source: The World's Healthiest Foods)

Day 45. Dollar 45. Pound 45.
We give thanks to God for pink, petite, protein-filled pintos. Canned Cooked Pinto Beans are one of the top ten wanted pantry items at Metro CareRing.
