I made this for a family gathering and it turned out really well.. I only used one jalapeno and I did use 2 limes other then that no changes. Everyone loved it and it worked well being gluten free also!

When my wife, who shuns all spicey hot foods, took her second serving spoon of this salad, I knew you had a winner! It is a great taste and high in protein. This could substitute for a meat in a summer meal. We'll do this one again. It is my policy to make a new recipe by-the-book the first time, then adjust if it seems necessary. I will double the Lime juice next time. Rick in Raleigh

This is delicious and healthy at the same time. I think the lime and cilantro are the key. Very fresh taste.

I omitted the rice and replaced the kidney beans with another can of black beans and served as a salsa with homemade tortilla chips. I took home an empty bowl and many requests for the recipe. It is really a great for taking to a picnic or party because it still tastes great at room temperature. Because I hate chopping jalapenos I used a small can of chopped green chilis and it turned out great.

I served this at a party and it was a hit. Great dish for an outdoor party. We ate it with tortilla chips.

One word - YUM! So light and simple; this will be a summer staple for us. My daughter - a fairly picky 11 year old, loved the salad before we put in the rice, and commented that it would make a wonderful salsa - I agree!!

Nice blend of flavors! Even with the jalapenos, I thought it needed some "oomph", so I kept doctoring it til I was happy with it. Great side dish! Thank you for sharing this recipe!

YUM! I loved the combination of flavors in this! I didn't have jalapeno peppers so I left them out but then it seemed like it needed some spunk so I added a little hot sauce. Also, it says salt to taste, just FYI, I used a little salt when I cooked the rice and then added one tsp. salt to the whole mixture. I diced the green pepper and onion very small to keep them small in proportion to the main ingredients. This is a keeper!

This was good, but I thought it needed some oomph, so I added some nice, vinegary hot sauce. I made a few minor subs based on personal preference: quinoa for rice, roasted Hatch green chiles for jalapeno (they're hotter and more flavorful), and green onions for white. I'd add some red wine vinegar and avocado if I made this again. Nice, hearty dish.

This is a wonderful salad! The combination of flavors is great; the lime gives the salad a wonderfully light, refreshing taste. Because my family doesn't care for spicy things (and because I didn't have any!) I omitted the jalapeno peppers, but this is still a very tasty, easy to make salad. Thanks for sharing!
