one bowl southwestern style salad

Chop into similarly sized pieces:

avocado
turkey breast
tomato
corn (I microwave it first and cut it off the cob, but frozen would work too)
green onion
bell pepper, green or red
cucumber

Throw into a bowl with a can or two of drained black beans. If desired, add cooked rice (white, brown, spanish, yellow, whatever). Chop some fresh cilantro and mix everything together. Dress with a mixture of:

lime juice
wine vinegar (white or red or even sherry)
olive oil
celery seed
cumin
salt
red pepper flakes

Should keep in the fridge for a day or two. Might be good with shrimp, will try that next.
