Ma Cuisine Venture Numéro Un

I do not cook.  At all.  Well, I cook to survive.  But for some reason I've never really been into it.  It just seems like so much work most of the time.  And the dishes!  I can't handle one bowl in the sink, let alone a pile of them after making a meal.  Since I moved though, I've slowly been dabling in the art of cuisine that I make myself.

Tonight, thanks to The Monster Librarian I found this yummy recipe from another blog, which is now one of my favorite things to read ever.  a farmer in the dell has all these amazing recipes that sound so delicious and EASY.  I need easy.

Tonight's recipe: Chiplote Quinoa Sweet Potato Patties

Well, I didn't have chiplote so I used chilli powder, and I also didn't have quinoa so I used some left over brown rice.  It also has black beans which I could eat everyday of my life and be happy.  I told my mom what I was making for dinner and she thinks I'm nuts.  

Some facts about sweet potatoes:
- They are packed with fiber
- They can add to your daily need of vitamin C
- It's good for your skin!
- And since Breast Cancer Awareness Month just ended, studies show that women who ate food rich in beta-carotene decreased their chances of breast cancer.  

Here's the result!

I know, it doesn't look too pretty, they fell apart a little while cooking - more bread crumbs!  The green is a tomatillo salsa that we made on Friday night.  It's good on the patties!
