'A gal at work shared this interesting bean salad with me a few years ago,' notes Michelle Smith of Running Springs, California. 'It has lots texture and gets a little kick from the chili powder and cumin without being too hot. It's a nice favorite at our family gatherings. For a hearty change of pace, serve it in a tortilla with slices of grilled chicken breast.'
