SERVES:
Makes approx. 4 cups

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 15-ounce cans black beans, well drained and rinsed


• An equal amount of fresh diced pineapple (or substitute 2 cans well drained canned diced pineapple)


• 1/2 cup deseeded, finely diced red pepper


• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro


• 1/3 cup finely diced red onion


• 1/3 cup finely diced green onion


• 1 small jalapeno pepper, deseeded and finely minced


• Juice of 1/2 large lime


• Olive oil as needed


• Salt to taste

PROCEDURE:

Add 2 well drained and rinsed 15-ounce cans of black beans to a large mixing bowl and add an equal amount of finely diced pineapple to that.

Then add 1/2 cup deseeded and finely diced red pepper, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro and 1/3 cup each finely diced red onion and green onion and also add 1 small or 1/2 large deseeded and minced jalapeno pepper.

Next, add a drizzle of olive oil to the mix and add the juice of 1/2 large lime...or more if you think it needs it...add salt to taste and mix it up.

HINTS:

You'll want approximately equal amounts of diced pineapple and canned black beans so keep that in mind when you are dicing the pineapple and, since this makes quite a bit, feel free to cut the recipe in half and use just one can of beans.

You can make this up to a day ahead of time and let the flavors come together in the fridge or even make a lesser amount if you don't think you'll need this much and then serve it along side any simply cooked meat or fish or even as an appetizer with corn tortilla chips.
