I don't eat meat everyday. I rarely crave it and don't miss it when I go a day or so without it. My favorite non-meat meal is a veggie quesadilla. However, sometimes I get it into my head that I just want or need a really big salad for dinner. I love this version of a salad because the mashed up avocado acts as a very creamy (and healthy) dressing. We were eating a lot of this salad over the last couple of months in Missouri because it's easy and uses up a ton of fresh ingredients all at once. (Anyone else guilty of buying produce and letting it rot away in the crisper?)
I don't even have a name for this salad, but maybe you've made something like it before.
Black beans, lettuce, corn, tomatoes, cilantro, avocado, a squirt of lime, and a sprinkle of sea salt. Red onion would be great too, mixed in with the avocado.
I mentioned that when we're in the process of moving into or out of a new house, I generally lose my appetite. This time, since the process is definitely being prolonged with the remodeling, there is nothing I feel like cooking for dinner. Like, nothing.
What are your easy, go-to summer meals?
