Amazingly good for a recipe with so few ingredients. Try it, this is terrific. -
I needed a quick salad, using stuff I had on hand, to go with our burgers tonight and this was perfect. I halved the recipe and used a 1/2 red pepper I had in the fridge and cilantro instead of parsley. For the vinaigrette, I used Bev's Parmesan Balsamic Vinaigrette #54716, along with a dash of Tabasco. The feta that I had on hand had basil and tomato in it, which added another tasty twist to this. This is a very satisfying, quick and easy to make, black bean salad and we enjoyed it very much. Thanks for the recipe Tish!

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes:
? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again.
? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time.
? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK
? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all
? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
