fiesta bean salad

Black beans, chick peas, tomatoes, cilantro and avocado are tossed with a cumin-lime vinaigrette – I love the bright, fresh flavors of this quick and easy salad! Perfect for lunch, Meatless Mondays, or even as a side dish with grilled steak, shrimp or chicken.

Tbsp. lime juice

Tbsp. red wine vinegar

Make the dressing: In a small bowl, add all dressing ingredients and whisk to combine. Set aside. (Feel free to add 1 tsp. pure maple syrup to balance the flavors, or 1/4 tsp. chili powder for some spice.)

Rinse and drain chickpeas and black beans. Add to a medium mixing bowl.

Dice tomatoes, roughly chop cilantro, and finely dice red onion. Add to the beans.

Pour dressing over salad and stir.

Peel and dice avocado. Add it to the salad and lightly toss to combine. Taste and adjust flavors if needed, or add more salt &amp; pepper.

Can serve immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour first. (If not serving immediately, you can add the avocado right before serving to prevent it from browning.)
