Dressing:

1/3 cup lime juice

2 cans black beans, rinsed

1/2 cup olive oil

1 garli clove - crushed

1 tsp salt

1/2 cup chopped cilantro - about 1/2 nice size bunch

Add ingredients to a jar and shake well - set aside.

In a samll bowl combine all ingredients and pour dressing over.  Stir well and refrigerate.

I would suggest that you double or triple this recipe.  It will not last long as most of our family members see it as a meal in itself.

This is great over a salad of fresh greens with grilled chicken or steak and topped with ranch dressing that has chipotle sauce added to it.  Definitely a meal unto itself.

This is adapted from many versions that I have tried.
