#115 Cumin Carrots with Black Beans (by JoeFoodie)
Typically when we have taco night, I make beans & rice. Tonight, however, we had some carrots to use, so I tweaked this recipe.
Chop approximately a pound of organic carrots into discs. Boil about an inch & a half of water in a small saucepan. Along with the carrots, add a tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of chipotle pepper powder, a tablespoon of cumin, & some sea salt. Cover & simmer for until the carrots are almost tender (about 10 minutes). Uncover & turn the heat to medium-high. Let the liquid reduce (remember to stir the carrots). Once the liquid is almost gone, add a can of organic black beans. Heat through & serve.
I topped mine with diced fresh jalapeno for color and heat.

Red Velvet Cupcakes: Sweet Happiness
Based out of Grosse Pointe Woods, MI, Red Velvet Cupcakes does not have a store front, rather Michelle Brown delivers her homemade cupcakes to your door. I had the pleasure of sampling a number of different flavors:
Carrot
Moist carrot cake paired with whipped lemon infused cream cheese icing.
Vanilla Bean
Vanilla cake infused with pure vanilla and vanilla beans paired with vanilla buttercream.
Peanut Butter Cup
Devil’s food caked paired with creamy peanut butter frosting.
Better than a Hostess
Devil’s food cake filled with a homemade vanilla bean cream topped with chocolate fudge ganache, and more vanilla bean whimsy!
Signature Red Velvet (color changes for holidays!)
Red (or green) velvet cake paired with whipped cream cheese icing and red velvet crumbs for garnish.
