Black-Bean-and-Corn-Topped Potatoes is an amazing meatless meal that is sure to satisfy. This dish is a great way to enjoy a delicious meal while still keeping your waistline trim. Perfect for any occasion, this dish is easy to make and can be served as a main course or side dish.

The key to making this dish is to start with high-quality potatoes. Yukon Golds or Russets are ideal for this dish, as they will hold their shape and have a buttery texture when cooked. Once the potatoes are washed and scrubbed, they should be cut into cubes and boiled until tender.

To make the topping, black beans and corn should be combined with chopped onion, bell pepper, garlic, cumin, chili powder, and oregano. This combination of spices and vegetables will give the topping a robust flavor. Once the topping is prepared, it should be spread over the cooked potatoes and baked in the oven until the topping is lightly browned.

When served, the potatoes should be topped with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkled with freshly chopped cilantro. This dish pairs well with a side of steamed vegetables, such as broccoli or asparagus.

So gooood

Lo Mein looks SOO good

Yummy! Can't wait to try some!

Is it so?

I've made number 11 on many occasions, it's super easy and yummy!!!

It's raining in my mouth yummmmmmmy

I so wish I liked more veggies. I'm definitely a fruit person. I don't like a lot of the textures on vegetables like peppers and tomatoes (they feel rubbery on my tongue) or onions and broccoli. I usually have things like stir fry ending up with just carrots and green beans lol. These look delicious though.

I am so hungry right now
