You Will Need

  • Step 1

    Gather your ingredients:
    I used

    Green pepper
    Leftover tomato sauce
    Leftover black beans (whole)
    The remains of a lettuce head (the stuff near the base)
    A half used onion
    A half used box of mushrooms
    1/2 cup of leftover cheddar cheese (shreaded)
    A half eaten whole wheat wrap (those stupid brothers!!! :p)

  • Step 2

    Ok, so i put a fry pan on the stove turned it to medium and poured in my black beans, juice and all, let the juice boil off a bit. I added the lettuce (I chopped it) and the onions (cut into small pieces). I let that cook for a bit, about 4 minutes, then i added the leftover tomato sauce and heated it up. I threw in the mushrooms and then added the spices ( i used Mrs. Dash, its got no salt in it-lemon/pepper mix) and some garlic :)

    I quickly stird the spices in, and added the cheese, make sure you stir the veggies quickly, (You don't wanna burn the cheese) The cheese will melt slightly and you can remove it from the burner.

  • Step 3

    The consistancy for mine was like a thick gravy, you wanna make sure its NOT to wattery ew. You can let the water boil off or not add all the liquid, the cheese brings it together a bit, if it's still wicked watery you can add a LITTLE BIT of cornstarch. (dont use to much cornstarch, i mean it is pretty nasty stuff)

    Serve over rice, or on a wrap, or on toast or by itself, or on a ricecake... you get the idea!!

  • Step 4

    Hit me up if you need help with some making something with weird ingredients!! I'll try my best!

First wow, i applaud you for eating garbanzo beans!!! I can't stand them Happy Ok, anyways I have two suggestions... 1) Personally i would roast the zucchini on a baking sheet with just a little bit of olive oil and seasoning, and then i'd mix the garbanzo beans with some tomatos/onions/peppers, and serve wit the cucumbers. 2) My family is really into 'hot' salads in which case you basically heat everything up together and serve over lettuce, then on top you add the cold things you don't want to cook (like cucumbers). For example a popular one i'll make for my mom is Kale, garbanzo beans (or black) sweet potato, asparagus, mushrooms, onions and brussle spouts. You stew everything up, steam the kale on top (you can do it in one pot) and then you serve it on lettuce with hummus. So you could do this with the beans, zucchini and any other veggies you have leftover!!

Hope this helped.... oh no, it's a bit long. Happy
