Contributed By: Tammya

A great, low-fat recipe that's quick and simple but fabulous tasting!

Ingredients

1 cup Black beans
1 cup Garbanzo beans
1 cup Pinto beans
1 cup Red kidney beans
1 bunch Celantro - washed and chopped
1 Medium red onion
1/2 cup Seasoned rice vinegar
 Salt and pepper

Preparation

Wash tops of all cans then open. Place all beans in a strainer and rinse well. Place in large bowl.


Wash and chop onion and celantro and add to beans.


Add rice vinegar and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Cook's Notes

This is a recipe you can get very creative with. You can add in cut green beans (my favorite), olives, cooked brown rice (then you'll need to add a bit more rice vinegar), or whatever other fresh vegetables you have - just chop them up and stir them in.
