Cowboy Salad

Notes

1. Black beans - in the spirit of "Cowboy food", I use black beans. But any beans will do here - even lentils and chickpeas.

2. Tomatoes - if using large tomatoes, cut in half and scoop out watery centre, then dice.

3. Chipotle powder??- sub smoked paprika.

Chipotle powder still not yet in mainstream grocery stores in Australia! It's dried smokey flavoured jalapeños and it's a staple ingredient in Tex Mex / South West / Mexican cooking. Found at Harris Farms (NSW/QLD) and some speciality grocery stores, or online at Firework Foods (I get Mexican ingredients from here) (PS Chipotle SEASONING can be used but skip salt in recipe)

4. Storage -keep for 4 days in the fridge (with dressing), might need a fresh squeeze of lime. Avocado won't go brown once dressed.

5. Nutrition per serving.
