Mexican Salad

I don't know if I read a recipe for this, or I just stole the idea from a restaurant, but it's good.

In a large bowl, make a bed of romaine (chopped into thin strips) and chopped onion.

In a smaller bowl, mix together:
A handful of chopped cilantro
1-2 tomatoes, diced
1 can of corn, drained
1 can of black beans, drained
1 package of taco seasoning mix

Scoop corn/bean mix onto each serving of lettuce and onion.
Add broken tortilla chips and sour cream (or dressing of choice).

Couscous Salad

This is such a refreshing summer dish. I don't have the amounts to most of this stuff, just use your judgement as to how much of each ingredient to put in.

Cook up Israeli Couscous (about 2 cups)
Stir in a good amount of olive oil and place in fridge covered to cool.
Chop up mint leaves and cilantro stir into couscous
Add minced garlic and sea salt
Stir in:
feta cheese
garbanzo beans (1 can)
grape tomatoes (halved)
balsamic vinegar (a splash)

Chill in fridge

Hybrid Home-made Jarred Salsa

I always think store-bought salsa just tastes like spicy tomatoes. However, you might not feel like starting from scratch with making your own.
Today, I bought a jar of Newman's Own salsa, with a fresh bunch of cilantro, and one onion.
I chopped up the cilantro and onion, and mixed it with the salsa.
It tastes home-made, but takes about half the time.
