This is really good on chicken or fish (some kind of white fish like catfish; I haven't tried it with salmon or tuna).

• 1 tomato, chopped
• spring onions (I used three; use more or less for preference)
• 1-2 tablespoons of lemon or lime juice (to taste; I like a lot)
• splash of dry white wine or cooking sherry
• salt and pepper, to taste
• oregano (fresh or dried; again, I like strong flavors so I use a lot)
• basil (see above)
• coriander seeds

It might also work with balsamic vinegar instead of lemon juice, but I haven't tried that yet.  You mix everything together, then pour it over whatever meat you're using (I've used chicken breast and catfish) in a baking dish and bake at about 400 until the meat is done (or with fish, about 20-25 minutes so the vegetables cook too).  I don't know if this is a recipe I've seen somewhere and adapted, or if I made it up, or what.  But it's good.  Even Justin eats it, and he doesn't really like tomatoes.  Serve over rice, or maybe couscous if you prefer.

It may be starting to sleet outside.  Ick.  I have to go to work tonight.
