Ack - No Pics (Salsa Bean Dip)

This is a cheater post. I did a Mexican Fiesta for friends on the weekend.

We had a Salsa Bean Dip, Fajitas, Guacamole. There was sangria and margaritas. I took exactly zero photos. In terms of eating, it was pretty good. In terms of blogging, an epic fail.

I'm determined to be a better food blogger. On that vein, I'm gonna have my phone at my side for the next few weeks so there won't be an excuse NOT to take pics.

We shall see (ha - literally) where that takes us in the kitchen.

In the meanwhile, you could see my guacamole blog post here.

And... see a pic of the tasty margaritas we drank here:

I'm going to give you the recipe for the Salsa, Bean Dip here - but there are no pics so please forgive their absence. It is EXTREMELY flexible so feel free to play around with it.

Salsa Bean Dip

1/2 jar salsa (I jar my own but you can use your favourite store-bought one)

about 1/2 cup "red" salad dressing (Catalina, California, etc.)

1/2 can lentils

1/2 can black beans (you could use kidney or white)

1/4 minced onion (I usually use red but Spanish is good too)

1 bell pepper, chopped (yesterday I had yellow but any colour is fine)

3/4 cup corn kernels (optional - I didn't use them yesterday)

Handful herbs, chopped (I detest cilantro but if you dig it, it would rock in this recipe)

Combine and let sit for about an hour so the flavours can combine.
