GRILLED TURKEY OR CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH BLACK BEAN, CORN, TOMATO AND AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• 1. Whisk the mustard and vinegar in a large bowl, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season the cutlets with some salt and pepper and put in a large non-reactive glass or ceramic bowl. Pour about a 1/4 cup of the dressing over the cutlets and turn to coat evenly. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature, or in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours.
• 2. Add the beans, corn, and tomatoes to the remaining dressing. Season the salsa with salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Add the avocado and cilantro and gently mix, taking care not to break up the avocado.
• 3. Preheat a stovetop grill or grill pan on medium-high. Drain the cutlets and grill until lightly browned and firm to the touch, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve hot with the salsa.

MEXICAN TOMATO AND BLACK BEAN SOUP WITH A CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Tomatoes -- The tomatoes should just be cut in half or quarters. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast on a baking sheet lined with parchment or you can just use a non stick spray, in a 400 degree oven, middle rack for about 15 minutes, until they begin to caramelize and get golden brown. Once the tomatoes are done, remove from the oven and transfer all the tomatoes and the juice from the pan, into a food processor.
• Puree -- To the tomatoes add, the 1/2 cup onion rough chopped and jalapeno. Puree until smooth. Taste, if it isn't too hot you can add another jalapeno. I use two, but the is a tomato soup, so you don't want it too spicy. That is up to you.
• Base -- In a medium pot, add a little olive oil (1 teaspoon), and add the celery, 1/2 cup fine diced onions and garlic and saute on medium heat until tender, 3-4 minutes.
• Soup -- Then to the celery and onions, add in the tomatoes, (pureed roasted tomatoes, and the diced tomatoes), black beans, broth, and all the seasoning. Don't add the cilantro or the lime juice yet.
• Simmer -- On medium low, cook for about 15 minutes. Turn the heat off and add in the cilantro and lime juice.
• Corn Salsa -- As the soup is simmering, make the corn salsa. In a small bowl, add the corn, avocado, onion, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper and mix well. It only needs to marinate a around 10 minutes.
• Serve -- Serve a big bowl of the soup with the corn salsa and a dollop of the sour cream. I also like to add some chopped olives, but that is optional, and some tortilla chips.
