Mango & Avocado Salad with Black Beans & Lime Vinaigrette

I went to Wholefoods website and saved a few recipes that I will try to prepare during our 60 Day journey.

I haven't tried it yet, but I will let you know when I do!

The first is Mango & Avocado Salad with Black Beans & Lime Vinaigrette

Serves 4

Tropical flavors of mango and citrus complement black beans in this colorful salad.


Ingredients
2 firm-ripe avocados, halved, peeled, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons lime juice, divided
1 firm-ripe mango, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, more for garnish
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed

Method
Gently toss avocado with a tablespoon of lime juice in a medium bowl; add mango, jalapeño and salt and toss to combine. To make the lime vinaigrette, whisk together the remaining lime juice, zest, sugar and cilantro in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil until thoroughly combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss the black beans with the vinaigrette. To assemble the salad, spoon the black bean mixture onto the middle of a small platter. Arrange the chopped mango and avocado around the black beans. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
