Grilled pork chop, grilled corn, wax beans:

Pork good enough to stab with a serrated knife.

So easy too.

I took two chops and did my usual marinade of italian dressing, then threw the suckers on the grill for about 15-20 minutes until they reached 155ish degrees and pulled 'em off. I kept the corn on there for about the same amount of time. The wax beans were from our weekly CSA veggie box, and we steamed them for just a couple minutes--they were so fresh and delicious they almost didn't need cooking.

Bean salad and avocado!

Another item on the permanent rotation around here.

1 avocado, cut into halves

1/2 can of black beans, rinsed

2 stalks jarred hearts of palms

1/2 can corn

a handful of cherry tomatoes, chopped up... or really a 1/2 normal tomato

I mix everything but the avocado up in a bowl, add some lemon juice, some olive oil, salt, pepper, maybe sneak a mashed clove of garlic in there, and let it sit for a few hours...stewing in its own awesomeness. 

Then spoon some into each avocado half (this feeds me and the hubs for dinner), and spoon the rest on your plate as a side because it's so good you can't get enough.
