Corn-Avocado-Tomato Salad

I don't really know how to qualify this---is it a dip?  a salad? a side? 
All I know is that it is healthy and it is YUMMY!  I started eating it with chips, and then moved to a fork, and later a spoon.  I ate it with a little grilled chicken mixed in, too, and later a little romaine lettuce. 

3 ears of corn, brushed with olive oil and sea salt and toasted on the grill (and then cut off the cob)
2 avocados, cut into small chunks
2 handfuls of cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half

Juice from one lime
1 tablespoon of olive oil

Mix all these things together in a bowl and try to not eat the entire bowl full.  It is summer deliciousness!! 

Pesto Rice & Beans

This was not a huge hit with my family, but I really liked it. I'd serve it with some spinach salad and grilled/baked chicken breasts.

15 oz. great northern beans, drained and rinsed
14 oz. chicken broth
3/4 cup uncooked long-grain rice or wild rice
1 1/2 cups frozen green beans, thawed
1/2 cup prepared pesto (Classico has some yummy stuff in a jar)

Combine beans, broth, and rice in a crock pot. Cook on low for 2 hours. Add in green beans and cook on low for another hour. When the rice is finished, stir in the pesto and let it stand (covered) for five minutes.
