This is a nice, different type of salad. It has a fresh, light flavor. I despise canned salmon, so I used 2 (6oz) pouches of salmon. Even though it was only 12 oz, I thought it was definitely plenty. In fact, next time I make this, I would actually double the black beans in relation to the salmon. Thanx for posting.
