Southwest Meatballs with Corn Black Bean Salsa

A delicious skillet meal with a hispanic flavor, fit for a busy lifestyle.
By Brady Evans

I have been really busy lately.  Shamefully busy.  And I’m trying to find places to cut corners to free up some time for myself but I can’t really come up with anything.

I could stop running.

But then I compromise my mental health (and ability to eat lots of food). I would gain more sleep.  And more frustration.  And more weight.

I could stop horsing around.

But that wouldn’t be fair to the Omnivore, these guys, or myself.

I could stop blogging.

But then I couldn’t share wonderful recipes perfect for a busy person like me (and you!?).

This dish is cooked all in one skillet.  Easy, peasy.  Your hands get rather messy forming the meatballs but sometimes kitchen therapy like that is all you need to forget the length of your to-do list.  The meal itself was restaurant quality.  Don’t skimp on the squeeze of lime or the dose of cilantro – you’ll regret it.
