Our New Favorite Salad

This summer, we discovered a new favorite salad.  You could certainly make this whole dish from scratch, but in the interest of time, I start with a Suddenly Salad Southwest Grains kit which I prepare according to package directions.  Then I add vegetables on hand, like fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, grilled corn, canned beans and always an entire bunch of finely chopped parsley.  Sometimes we also add feta cheese.  Mix and refrigerate until ready to eat.  If I need more salad for a larger crowd, I stretch it with a few cups of cooked couscous and some extra spices.


I don't know how many times we've made this salad over the summer months, but we're still not tired of it.  It's great in a lunch box, too.
