Let me tell you what was appealing about this recipe...it says to freeze it and let it thaw in your lunch. It's a meal/side dish AND a freezer pack in one! :) Oh, and it's healthy. Personally I thought this lacked a little flavor. So I added some cilantro. It was still good, but I didn't love this as a side dish/salad. However, this made a great filling for a taco!! Add this into a corn tortilla and you've got a great, healthy lunch.
1 tomato, diced
1/4 red onion, chopped
1 can kidney beans, drained
1 can green chilies, drained
1/2 can of corn, drained (I used 2/3 c of frozen corn)
1/2 jalapeño, diced (I omitted)
2 tbsp chopped cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Dice tomatoes, jalapeño and chop onion. Open and drain cans of chiles, beans and corn. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Season with Salt and Pepper to taste.
Spoon into large ziploc bags, remove air, fold and double bag. Freeze overnight. By the time you go to eat dinner the next evening, your meal will be thawed but not spoiled (and it won't have spilled out into your pack either!).
The whole bowl of this recipe is 10 ww+ pts (with 2/3 c frozen corn and 1 can of kidney beans).
