something yummy for your 4th of July BBQ

I got this recipe from the recipe board here on OH yesterday and made it last night.....OMG, it is sooo tastey!!!  And it just looks yummy too with all the colors.  Maybe you all would like to try it for your BBQs over the holiday weekend....  I know I'll be making it again.

Black Bean Salad

1 can (15oz) black beans rinsed and drained
2C diced mango
1C diced red bell pepper
6 green onions thinly sliced
1/4C chopped cilantro leaves
1/4C fresh lime juice
1T olive oil
1 seeded jalapeno minced
salt to taste

Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Toss and serve

Sounds perfect for the summer.  Thank you.

Kim

You're welcome Kim...and thanks for the other recipe.  Wow, it looks delish.  I'm going to try it over the weekend too....and it looks like I already have everything except tortillas.  Yummo!!!

You are so welcome.  Sharing is caring.

Laura,

That looks tasty and yummy.  I may have to make that.  I am going to the fresh market tonight so I am just going to have to pick up some supplies and give that a try.  How is Olivia.  I just fell in love with her.  I wanted to take her and Isla home with me, but we did not have room in the car or betcha a dolllar to a donut, they would have been packed up sitting her in my kitchen eating treats.  Maybe even this Mango Salsa!  It was such a joy meeting all of the northern ladies, what a great bunch.  Give Olivia a hug from me and  get one back yourself for me.  Have a great day.

Rhonda

Hugs back to you too, Rhonda.  From me and Olivia.  Everyone is so kind and generous with her.  Thanks All...... 

It was so cool that you and Janine made your surprise appearance at the luncheon.  There was just not enough visiting time that day, so for sure you're going to have to come back!!

When you come this way for your rafting trip with MoMo you may have some of party-crashers wanting to hang around!!!  Just be forewarned.....

I hope you try this salad...I loved it.   

Hi Laura, I am still wearing a lot of the clothes you gave me a couple of years ago. I guess that is sort of sad, BUT! the great news is that I will be having WLS on 9/9/9! Yippee!
PS, the recipe sounds wonderful. I wil try it.

OMG Gail...you WON!!!!  I am so happy for you!!!  You have been waiting soooo long.

And your date is 9-9-09....anyone do numerology and can tell us what good things are in store for Gail????

I really liked this salad...the texture and colors are wonderful.....

Laura I sure think you are a wonderful person and your daughter Oliva is a real jewel for sure! I also liked your friend a lot...I can't remember her name, but please tell her hi from me!

I am coming back up there soon with Jeff and I sure would like to meet up with you again!

Most definitely!!!  ....one afternoon (or 2 or 20 probably) is just not enough visiting time

My friend is Debbie.  She had surgery the summer of '04.   She was not very active on the boards....but I'm working on her
