Description
Summer is all about healthy salads and light, simple flavors. This salad fits that description perfectly. It has protein from the black beans, good veggies, fresh herbs, and a light dressing of olive oil and fresh lemon juice. So tasty!
Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans
- 1 whole Red Bell Pepper
- 3 whole Green Onions
- 2 whole Ripe Plum Or Roma Tomatoes
- 5 Tablespoons Fresh Chopped Cilantro
- 6 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 3 Tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Coarsely Ground Pepper
- ¾ teaspoons Salt
Preparation
Drain the black beans and rinse with cold water.
Cut the red bell pepper into a 1/4 inch dice. Slice 3 inches of the green and white sections of the green onions into 1/4 inch rounds. Seed the tomatoes and cut into 1/4 inch pieces.
Chop the cilantro.
Put all of the veggies as well as the salad dressing ingredients into a medium bowl and toss gently. Refrigerate.
When ready to serve, let the salad rest loosely covered at room temperature for at least an hour before serving.

That’s a great idea! It’s good with some feta cheese in it as well!

I think I’m going to try this, but spice it up a bit with some jalapeños. Sounds yummy!
