salad, salad, salad

I seem to be on a salad kick lately -- it does make a quick and easy work lunch, after all! Last week it was Greek-style salads, this week, I decided to make "Quinoa Salad with Black Beans and Mango," from Veganomicon:

Although this has made for a somewhat light lunch given our sub-zero temperatures, it has been nice having something "already ready," and not having to think much about what to pack in the morning.

Other than grilled cheese sandwiches and breakfast burritos, I haven't done much cooking this week . . . but I've eaten out a couple of times, so that explains it all! :) I'm looking forward to doing a little cooking this weekend, and maybe snitching out of the stash of tamales in my freezer, too! Happy Friday night, all!
