Black Bean Summer Salad

This black bean salad is fresh and delicious.  My daughter said it reminded her of something that would come out of the Chipolte kitchen as she filled her plate with seconds.  It can be a light side, after workout meal, or over rice.  Either way you will not be disappointed; the flavors are bold!
