Raise Your "Cool-ness" Factor with a Tasty Summer Salad

     If there’s anything more welcome in the summer than a refreshing salad, it’s a quick, light meal that will get you out of the kitchen fast. So every Tuesday this summer, my friend and fellow Inkling Brandi Barnett is offering a Virtual Potluck, featuring super salads and magical meal ideas. She asked me to contribute to this cyber-smorgasbord and today posted my recipe for Black Bean and Hominy Salad. (I promise, it tastes better than it sounds!) Visit Brandi’s blog—not just today, but every Tuesday this summer—and get some tasty ideas for “cool” summer meals!

With cumin, cilantro, and a touch of jalapeno, this
salad has a south-of-the-border flair!
