This was a good base for a salad or dip, but where does the flavor come from? No spices or herbs...just kind of bland.

Not too bad to start but it needed a little extra. Rather than use kidney beans, I opted to use pintos. I cut back the cucumber to about 1/4 cup and added a pinch of cumin, 1 diced fresh jalapeno (will be two next time), and a 1/4 cup of salsa.

I used low fat yogurt, so I didn't need the milk. It was a tasty Father's Day salad. Next time, I'll add some herbs for more flavor

This turned out really well. I will make again as it was a super easy evening meal. I did add in some seasonings as it seemed just slightly bland, probably since i used fresh avocado instead of guacamole. Some sea salt, white pepper, cumin, and garlic powder.

Thanks for the recipe! Didn't need the milk and nixed the lettuce. I used non-fat yogurt, organic blue corn chips, and made my own guacamole by mixing one avocado, a dash of salt, about a tbsp of lime juice, and about two generous tbsp of chunky salsa. The meal was delicious!

Great as a side dish or with chips. Next time, I may add a little lime juice, because the guacamole was a little brown the second day, but still really good!

I fixed this for lunch on a beautiful spring afternoon. I added corn to give it a little more flavor and color. I also drained the all of the canned items. The dressing is fresh and light. I served this with romaine lettuce and blue chips. This one was a hit!

I added a couple tablespoons of taco seasoning and then served it over shredded lettece sprinkled it with some shredded cheese and chopped green onion and served it like a taco salad with baked tortilla chips on the side....and it was absolutely delicious! My kids even liked it and normally they hate beans!

Awesome! I used whole big tomatoe, whole cucumber and 8oz yogurt(did not want to have left overs). Also I had some open chilli beans in fridge so I put them in. It all worked out perfect. Great combination. Thanks.
