    The combo of the cool oats with the warm and spicy beans is food-tastic. It also had such a creamy texture from the oats, beans, and avocado that just seemed to work together as well as the balance of flavors. Well don't I sound like a Food Network judge!

        I'm glad you found me! I'm sure you could substitute the yogurt for extra non-dairy milk and it would work as well. Let me know if you try it! : )

      Wow - that looks like a great recipe. I just can't get over your intro: As much as I love traveling, it’s always a relief to sleep in my own bed and not toss and turn in a bed that’s slept with more people than (insert name of high school cheerleader you envied here).

      Women empowering other women is something we need to do all the time, and if you have a public platform (for any topic), please be consistent by NOT stereotyping any women.
