Couscous!

Last night, we needed a quick meal, so I bought black bean burgers. I have two recipes for making them myself, but when we are in a hurry, the frozen ones are good. We've bought both morningstar and the gardenburger brand, and they are both tasty! We grilled the ones we had last night, since it was so hot in the kitchen. We always eat the pre-made black bean burgers on a whole wheat bun with a little bit of mayo and some salsa. It's good, healthy, and quick!

As a side, I made a couscous salad with corn and red pepper from epicurious. It was really good! There were times I questioned whether or not the salsa and black bean burger went well with the red wine vinegar in the couscous, but it was a really delicious and easy salad to make. I used frozen corn, but I would use fresh if it were in season. I am tempted to try another vinegar, in case we have it with black bean burgers again, but I'm torn. Either way, I'll definitely make it again.
