A Mexican restaurant called Tulum near us fills its hungry college clientele with hearty, inexpensive and portable concoctions. My home-based version can be adapted to mood and handy ingredients. There's a wonderful variety of fully-cooked link sausages these days, from screamin' chorizo to spinach and feta to pedestrian old Cheddarwurst. Try bright fresh veggies or nuts for color and crunch, and play with cheese and dressing combinations.
