Avocado Black Bean Salad

So yeah, I have this HUGE obsession with avocados and black beans. I could eat them every freaking day...just sayin'. So I tried this recipe from skinnytaste.com and fell in love. Again, I found stuff lacking, etc. I don't know what it is about certain recipes but I just can't adhere to them. Whatever, nobody complains about my food so here goes!


Avocado Black Bean Salad
Servings: 4  
1 medium cucumber; peeled and diced (If you don't peel, it has more calories f.y.i)
2 medium tomatoes; diced (I use the vine ripened ones for the best flavor)
2 medium avocados; diced
1 can black beans; drained and rinsed
2 Tbsp. red onion; diced
2 Tbsp. cilantro; chopped
4 Tbsp. lime juice (I use bottled, has less calories than fresh...who knew?!)
1/4 cup crumbled feta
salt and pepper to taste

Just combine, toss gently, and serve. Makes a great lunch or side dish with dinner.

Enjoy!!!
