I just realized how many of the recipes I have on here are very hearty, but rather fattening. So, for the more health concious, Black Bean Salad

Black bean dressing:

1/3 cup of canned black beans, drained

1-2 Tbsp olive oil

1- 2 Tbsp lime juice

1 garlic clove, minced

1/4 cup fresh chopped cillantro/corriander (or 2 tsp dried)

salt, pepper

1/2 to 1 tsp cumin

1 dash of chili powder

Mix together in bowl, adjusting oil to lime juice and cumin to cilantro to taste. Do not mash black beans.

Salad:

Lettuce, tomatoes, green peppers, avocado, jicama. Onions of you like ( I don't). One handful of lightly crushed tortilla chips.

Pour dressing over and enjoy.

Also developing my own veggie burger recipe. Coming soon!
