Dinner Tonight

Tonight we made a yummy Southwestern Salsa (recipe from this month's Cooking Light). They don't have the recipe online yet but it was similar to this one (minus the avocado). We used the limes we received from our Fruit of the Month club. It was delicious with homemade tortilla chips.
We bought a watermelon that was way too big for the 2 of us so I tried this Watermelon Salad recipe. I was intrigued by the mixture of ingredients. It was tasty. I might try it with cilantro instead of mint next time. Served it over a bed of lettuce.
I love not having to cook (except for baking the tortilla chips).

Together they made a very refreshing, summery meal. They are both great recipes to bring along to a summer cook out.

Both of the recipes came from an article about a restaurant in Denver where you pay what you can for a meal and if you can't afford to pay then you trade in work at the restaurant for food. Isn't that a great idea? It's called Same Cafe.

Ooh, looks yummy! You had this for dinner?! Wow! I'm not sure fruit for dinner would fly in the Marson household. :) Looks amazing!
