The Southwestern Black Bean Salad was tasty and satisfying. It reminded me of a salad I love at our favorite restaurant down on Folly Beach, Taco Boy. The dressing was really good, although I did add a little sugar since it was a bit tart. That could be b/c I used bottled lime juice leftover from making mojitos. I jazzed up the salad a little - I added some roasted red peppers, some chives I needed to use up and a little cumin. I also mixed the avocado into the salad rather than slicing it on top. It was topped with grated sharp cheddar. I did not include the olives, that just sounded weird. It was a nice light supper on a warm evening and an even better lunch today. I think I may make up batches for this just for lunches in the future.
