To save money and explore new foods, I have been cooking at home a lot more recently. While I have a lot of go-to recipes that my family loves, I have also been looking for new recipes to try. I recently made a delicious and nutritious casserole with healthy sweet potatoes, tomatoes, black beans, and corn that my family voted as a recipe to keep.
