Yesterday could be summed up with two words:
SIGN HERE!
and here, and here, and here!
I finally opened my Glo Bakery business accounts (opened a CAD and US account), and applied for a business credit card.
I also filled out all 20 pages of my Beanstream application and ordered a 25 kg bag of gluten-free OATS! My bulk bakery order from the co-op was cancelled, but it will be arriving today. I can’t wait to show you all the pictures of everything I bought.
I also made a new Glo Bakery product.
Coming soon…
Glo-nola.
This one had almonds, cranberries, raisins, pumpkin seeds, spices, coconut oil, and cacao nibs.
When I told Eric the name, Glo-nola, he goes, ‘I don’t get it.’
I was like…GLO…nola! Get it? GLO! Instead of GRA!
Silence.
It was almost as bad as having to explain a joke to someone. I gave up and walked away with my tail between my legs.
I thought to myself, ‘My friends on OSG will SO get this!’ haha. You guys get me…right?!

After work, it was time for a quick dinner.
Yes, folks. I am still stuffing every vegetable I can get my hands on!
Last night I walked into the kitchen and found these ingredients:
- Black beans
- Leftover Organic Tomato Sauce
- Organic baby carrots
- Peppers
I decided to make a very quick and easy black bean dip and go from there. :)
60 Second Black Bean Dip and Stuffed Peppers
by Angela Liddon
Ingredients:
- 2 peppers
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup tomato/pasta sauce or salsa
- 6 baby carrots, diced
- 1 t Paprika
- Crushed black pepper (I use LOTS!)
Directions: Chop carrots, coarsely. Rinse beans. Dump beans, carrot, pasta sauce, paprika, and pepper into processor. Process for 10 seconds. I like to leave some chunky beans in mine. Cut open 2 peppers and stuff with bean mixture. Place in oven for 15-20 minutes at 350F on a baking sheet. Drizzle with your favourite vinaigrette and enjoy! Wrap up leftover bean mixture for the next day’s lunch.
One of these stuffed peppers packs about 14 grams of protein. This dinner kept me full for a long time (and I didn’t think it would at all).
I served mine with pita wedges:
Mmmmmmm. I loved this.
I can’t wait to eat the leftover bean dip for lunch.

Totally get the glonola! And it sounds pretty fine too ~ yummy choice of flavors.
Have a great day :)
I totally get the glonola joke :) and it looks delicious by the way!
Im loving all of the stuffed veggies your making lately, its inspiring me to get creative and try them too!
enjoy your day :)
Heck yes!! Glo-nola, I love it! I’ve been craving granola for weeks. I can’t wait until you can ship to the US in bulk :)
The black bean dip looks awesome!
Congrats on all your Glo progress!!
I made stuffed peppers last night, too! So delicious :)
Totally got the Glo-nola pre-explanation.
I’ve got to say you are beginning to entice me to purchase and I’m not easily enticed. Your products look so home-made and fresh and wholesome!
everything in this post looks amazing! i can’t wait for you to start shipping to the us. although i think if i were you i’d be a little bit afraid haha. i think glo-nola is going to be a big hit though! :)
lol yes, I get it! I think it’s a cute name!
I think Glo-nola is a totally cute name and I got right away. It looks super yummy too. Can’t wait for US shipping!
I love the idea of Glo-nola! So cute, and it looks sooo yummy! Your stuffed peppers look great, too!
great name and there is nothing better than home made granola much healthier than the packaged version at the store. The blacks bean dip looks great as well. Do you ever cook your own beans or mostly use canned? I have started to soak and cook my own it is so much cheaper than the canned. A tip I picked up from a website is to cook a big batch and keep some in the freezer than you always have some ready at a moments notice. Last night I made a veggie pizza using PC brand flat bread. On top of the veggies I put some crumbled black bean patties I had made last week. So good and filling as well, I brought the left overs for lunch today.
Keep being creative you truly are inspiring.
Such a cute work for you Glo-nola. Men, I don’t get them sometimes ;)
I meant word…:D
I just posted a recipe for stuffed zucchini boats! Haha, isn’t it more fun when you can stuff things? This all sounds delicious, can’t wait to try it..
Don’t worry! I totally “get” you and I love the name!
I just bought peppers this week to stuff and didn’t know what to put in them – great idea!
I stuffed peppers for dinner last night too! :-D
I love the Glo-nola. I still want to try to incorporate your goods in a wedding favor but that’s still on the back burner for now. I love the Glo-nola idea!
Haha Glo-nola is awesome! As is black bean dip. :)
Ha! I get the Glo-nola! No explaination necessary
Totes get the Glo-nola. I think it’s adorable!
YUM!! I can’t wait for Glo-Nola! Not only do I get it but I totally love it! :)
It looks so delicious.
I also really really REALLY want to try that black bean dip. I love that it’s “60-seconds” Quick, easy and delicious! :)
I’m so jealous of all the Summit girls getting to try your Glo Bars! It’s been nothing but GLOWING reviews, so congrats! :)
