This is wonderful!! We had it for a light summer dinner and it 'hit the spot!' The flavors blend perfectly together, a delightful mix of sweet and spicy. Looking forward to the next time! Thanks Tuli, for sharing a great recipe!

A great salad but we didn't have lime so used lemon and forgot the cilantro. We will definitely make again and hopefully with all the ingredients as listed

Oh wow! This is really good. I even used canned peaches because that's what I had on hand. I love black beans! Yum!<br/><br/>Just writing an update to my review. My family and I love this recipe, it has become a summer bbq/picnic staple for us. Thank you so much!

Loved this. I used chopped fresh cilantro (probably a couple of tablespoons), and 1 teaspoon of the red pepper flakes (we like things spicy). Nice combo.

made this today to go with chicken andouille sausage off the grill - really enjoyed it, although i might add a little more heat. didn't have time for the 2 hour chill period tho, so i'll wait til the leftovers chill some before deciding. thanks for posting!
