1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and 1/2-inch diced
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup small diced red onion
2 tablespoons minced jalapeno peppers, seeded (2 peppers)
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (2 limes)
1/4 cup good olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

Incredibly Easy and So So Good!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this several times. Each time I am amazed at how easily and quickly it comes together. And it is soooo good...... it's like a party in your mouth! I could eat this every day! It's light and healthy. I have eaten it alone, as a dip for tortillas and as a side to grilled fish, chicken and pork chops. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!Read more

Light and healthy side dish
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I follwed the advice from previous reviews and added 1 can of whole kernel corn (drained) and some cilantro. I will... definitely continue to make these additions when I make this dish in the future. I also added three avocados instead of two, but think I could have even added one more! Read more

Terrific recipe!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Served this with Aida's Roasted Chile-Lime chicken. The two together are terrific and have just the right amount of heat... without being too spicy. Love this and wouldn't change a thing about the recipe,Read more
