The Quickest Black Bean Salad

Anyone else think that Ann yelling "HA HA HA WHOOO!!! would make a great ringtone? 😸

I will probably end up adding avocado to this and perhaps a cubed sweet potato or butternut squash. Oh....and some finely chopped jalapenos.....mmmmmm. Hungry now. Thank you ladies!

Btw, water chestnuts are more than crunchy. They are a good source of potassium supplying copper, magnesium, B6 and calcium as well!

I'm not a fan of water chestnuts, never had them in Japan (tried it when I moved to the states), but I use jicama for a recipe like this and the crunch really adds to a salad like this. Planning to make it this holiday. Thank you for reminding us how healthy eating doesn't have to be so stressful and can be put together in minutes! ❤

Made this today. It was as good as they say it is…. I added an extra tomato and an extra can of black beans. Who knew lime and balsamic would create such a great dressing. This is a refreshing salad. Nice work, ladies!

Instead of adding water chestnuts from a can, for the crunch, how about adding fresh jícama chopped up? Just as crunchy, or even more, and goes with the whole "México" vibe!

I add fresh mango!!!

Ahhh memories of interactions in our three generations!! Much love and laughter!

Ann is amazing. Just absolutely amazing..

I put Cumin in mine along with bell peppers. Yum!

So I put it in a taco shell, added cheese and chipotle salsa. The store didn’t have water chestnuts so I substituted avocado. It is delicious.!!!

P.s. I love this salad, it's one of my faves. It's also good as an appetizer, stuffed into boston or romaine lettuce leaves.

you all are a hysterical delight to watch cooking together

Just made it and serving it with rice/quinoa and tofu on the side. I added 2 jalapeñas. YUM YUM!!! Thanks for sharing

I appreciate you for doing the recipes from your books. I like making quick dishes that I can eat for a few days. Update. I just made this and I love it. It is so refreshing. This will be one of my good to salads.

I am in charge of the menu for my Dad's birthday party next month. I am making this! Half the menu is going to be stuff I can eat, the other people will love it too I am sure. 😆

Lately, I have been addicted to Bragg's No Oil Vinaigrette dressing mixed with pomegranate seeds as my dressing of choice. The pomegranate seeds are so special with it.

I get such joy watching the 2 of you. Excited to try this recipe. Thank you !!!❤️

It would be nice, just to bump up the flavour is to add just one teaspoon of sugar. A dash of mustard powder, garlic powder, half a teaspoon of ground black pepper with 2tablespoons red wine vinegar and a little lemon juice. Give It a whirl or shake vigorously. It does make a difference in being sweet and a little sour... Haha. That's how I like, that's the way I like it...😊😅😂.

Great recipe to have on hand for sure. Your ancient recipes are amazing to have to serve on the table for all occasions. I love cilantro and water chestnuts. These 2 ingredients are my all time go to since l'm an old Chinese gal. I've eaten them all my life. We grow cilantro in our garden. It's a must to have. I follow your delish recipes and l make these dishes from time to time. No salt black beans are the best. Ann you are a sweet tomato 🍅 and if Wade approve....you know it's a winner......lucky camera guy for sure
