1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
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
2 ripe Hass avocados, seeded, peeled, and 1/2-inch diced

Directions

Place the tomatoes, yellow pepper, black beans, red onion, jalapeno peppers, and lime zest in a large bowl. Whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic, and cayenne pepper and pour over the vegetables. Toss well.

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

Perfect
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I chose this dish to take for a teacher appreciation lunch. Everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. I was nervous about... making this dish because with ingredients like garlic, jalapeno and onion, you never know if one of those ingredients will overpower the dish. But it was a perfect blend of ingredients. Also, the avocado didn't brown because of the lime juice in the dressing. This salad still looked pretty after several hours. Thanks! Read more

This recipe is a STAR!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Absolutely delish. I left out the yellow pepper & used one serrano pepper instead of jalepeno. It is a dish I would serve... proudly to company!Read more
