I am always looking for low-fat good recipes that use beans that are not weird or tasteless. I substituted green peppers for avocados (although they are a great source of monounsaturated fats). My visiting teacher gave me this one and I have loved it.
Ingredients:
1 can (15 oz) Black Beans
1 can (15 oz) Black Eyed Peas
1 can (15 oz) Corn
2 Green Peppers, diced (the original recipe calls for 2 avocados, cubed)
3 Tomatoes, chopped
4 Green Onions, chopped
1 bunch Cilantro, chopped (I use between 1/4-1/2 c)
juice of 2 Limes
1 pkg Good Seasons Italian Dressing (mix according to directions but do not add oil)
Garlic Salt or Powder, to taste
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Drain beans and corn. Add to a large bowl.
2. Add vegetables, lime juice, cilantro, and seasonings. Mix well,
3, Chill for a couple of hours
