side dishes | A sweet, just-picked tomato is key to this refreshing salad. It's not tomato season? Use grape tomatoes (which are always sweet) instead.

1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1 large tomato(es), diced
1 small onion(s), diced

2 Tbsp parsley, Italian, minced
1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste

Wow, this was so good and REFRESHING for such an incredibly hot day! I made this last night for dinner. It was even better today, as a cooling snack--I think because the flavors intensified and it got nice & cold in the fridge.

I doubled the celery, added some cumin and fresh basil, and I think I tripled the amount of vinegar. I also used red onion to give it some extra zing.

I highly recommend this refreshing & nutritious salad!
