Quick and Easy Mexi Bowl

Hey guys!  How did you day go?  Did you make the most of it??

The ferry that is taking me home tonight was running about 20 minutes late, so we’re just now leaving Seattle.  I really can’t complain though.  I’d rather have a ferry that is slightly late, than miss the ferry, and have to take the one that comes an hour and a half later! 

My lunch today was a salad

 It was packed with mixed greens, spinach, tomato, carrot, cucumber, chickpeas, sunflower seeds, and Annie’s Goddess dressing.

My dinner was a delight that I have decided to called the quick and easy Mexi bowl!

Simply combine brown rice, black beans, corn, and salsa in a bowl.  Stir them all together, and you’re set! 

I used frozen corn kernels in mine, since they have less sodium than canned corn.  You could also use fresh, but I’m too lazy, and it makes it slightly less “quick and easy”.

You could also top it with avocado, guacamole , or (vegan) sour cream to add a little something extra.  I found it quite delicious by itself though!

 

What made me happy today?

1.  These dudes were chillin’ out on their buoy on my way to work today! 

Seals are too cute!

2.  I had a great time with my co-workers today!  It was busy enough that we weren’t bored, but not so busy that we could spend a little time talking and joking around.  It was a good night. :)

3.  I got to text one of my best friends today!  I haven’t seen her in over a year, and we haven’t even really talked in quite a while!  I miss her.  She still hasn’t even had a chance to meet Keenan or Arlo yet!  This must and will change soon. :)

We took this the last time we saw each other.  Back in college, people would constantly ask us if we were sisters.  Nope!  Just sorority sisters! <3

What kind of wild animals do you see on a regular basis?

Up here we frequently see seals (obviously), deer, raccoons, possums (or is it opossums, I don’t know the difference!), and coyotes.

Have a great night!  I’ve got the day off tomorrow! Woohoo!

  1. I’m always on the lookout for quick Mexican dishes (it’s my favorite cuisine ;) ) This Mexi bowl looks great!

    And I don’t ever see any wild animals where I’m from :( I guess snakes? Maybe?

    From my window I can see a squirrel that used to live in our woodshed. He is in a humane trap – I caught him just a few minutes ago with peanutbutter. I will soon be releasing him on the other side of town.
    Your mexi bowl looks really good. must try soon.

      Awwww I hope he makes a new home and friends alright on the other side of town! ;) I wish they had humane traps for possums! We have this big fat one that wanders through our parking lot/garbage all the time! It’s nasty and I’m afraid it’s going to eat my dog, or at least give him rabies!
