Cowboy Caviar

I was really excited for this week because I have been desperately wanting to make this amazing avocado, black bean, white corn salad. I don't know what it's really called but my old roommate Jenny made it for me so I usually refer to it as "that-one-delicious-thing-that-Jenny-made-for-me-that-one-time." Anyways it has avocado in it so I counted it for my veggie of the week.

So the salad consist of white corn, black beans, tomatoes (another vegetable! I'm an overachiever), cilantro, juice of a lime and zesty Italian dressing. SO GOOD! I could it eat all day. (oh wait, I actually did that yesterday.)

Here's Jenny's recipe. Thanks girl :)

1 can black beans 1 can white corn 1 tomato 1 avocado 1/4 packet zesty italian dressing -mixed as directed with vinegar (I usually just toss in some dressing and some vinegar, you know, eyeballin' it. It works pretty well) Cilantro to taste Lime to taste

This is the finished product! Once again I had to model my food with my right hand and take a picture with my left hand, but this one turned out better than the last one. The salad just looks colorful, fresh and fun. Plus it tastes yummy.

 So I made this salad for my dinner group and it was a hit! My friends were so kind and modeled for me. This is Derrick. He loved it! Can't you tell by the picture?

This is my roommate Catherine. She loved it as well, but was a little more dainty about it. Overall everyone enjoyed it and it made me super happy.

This was all that was left by the end of the night. There was only a little left over and I may or may not have just eaten the rest of it as I was writing this blog post....

I have different avocado salad that I want to try later this week so stay tuned!
