Here's one of my favorites...just in time, too.

Orzo , Black Bean and Turkey Salad (serves 3-4...well it depends if you're willing to share)

1-2/3 cups onions, chopped 1 clove garlic, chopped olive oil 4 cups red, green a/o yellow peppers, chopped 1/2 cup water, or broth, or sherry 1/2 frozen corn 1 cup uncooked orzo (pasta) 1 can black beans, drained 1-1/2 cup (leftover) cooked turkey, in bite size pieces

Dressing: 2 tsp olive oil 2 Tbl red wine vinegar 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes 1 tsp cumin 1/2 tsp tumeric

Bring water to boil for pasta. Saute onion and garlic in a little olive oil over medium high heat. Add peppers after a little while, and when onions soften add water/broth/sherry and reduce heat. Just before peppers are done, add corn and beans (and turkey if you want it heated) and cook just to heat through. In the midst of this, cook the pasta. Whisk dressing ingredients together. Put drained pasta and vegies/turkey/beans in a bowl and toss together. Enjoy!

You can vary the amounts of vegies/beans/turkey. You can use smoked turkey if you like. The dressing is what makes it yummy.
