College Cooks: Are you in the midst of finals? Or about to be? Surviving on potato chips and ramen (i.e. salt)? Luckily, the College Student can survive the sustained assaults of such a diet--at least for a few more years.
Still, wouldn't it be nice to get some sustaining nutrition instead? Here's another good idea from Andrew Schloss, creator of clever recipes. If you had followed my pantry advice for the College Cook, you would have all the ingredients under your bed. But even a shopping trip should be doable and provides a nice break from procrastination.
"RECIPE"
1. 15 oz can of broth
2. 15 oz can of black beans (or any beans) drained
3. 15 oz can of tomatoes
4. 7 oz instant black beans** (these can be expensive--so why not just use another can of beans and mash with fork OR a can of refried beans?)
5. hot sauce
Combine in your rice cooker OR a pot (if you have a stove). Add 1 can of water. I would guess you could also put in a bowl and microwave. HEat up. Let sit a minute to let flavors develop.
This makes enough for 2 meals--or share with your frazzled roommate.
MODERN DAY-APOSTLES?
ReplyDeleteSome claim that there are apostles alive and well, living among us. Is that fact or fiction?
QUESTION: What purpose would modern day apostles serve?
QUESTION: If there are apostles today, why do they not mirror the acts of the apostles of the first century?
Acts 2:43 Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles.
Are people being filled with awe by the so-called modern day apostles? If that were true it would be on every TV network. It would dominate the cable TV channels. The Internet would flooded with accounts of these so-called modern day apostles.
ACTS OF THE FIRST CENTURY APOSTLES
The apostle Paul cause the magician Elymas to be temporarily blinded.(Acts 13:8-12)
Are the so-called contemporary apostles causing men to go blind? No.
The apostle Peter brought Tabitha back from the dead. (Acts 9:36-41)
Are the 21 century pretend-apostles bring people back from the dead? No. If they could bring men back from the dead they would invite TV crews into funeral homes, to witness their miracles.
The apostle Peter predicted the immediate death of Sapphira. (Acts 5:1-11)
Can the false modern day apostles predict the immediate death of people who lie to God? Of course they cannot.
The apostle Peter immediately healed a lame man who had been lame from birth. (Acts 3:1-10)
If these so-call modern day apostles could heal men who were lame from birth it would on every, nightly, TV news broadcast.
THE SIGNS OF AN APOSTLE
2 Corinthians 12:12 The signs of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by signs and wonders and miracles.
The so-called modern day apostles are missing the signs of a true apostle. Be careful not to get detoured down the wrong road by following false sign makers.
WE DO NOT NEED SO-CALLED MODERN DAY APOSTLES!
