Replace red beans w/ black and rice w/ basmati rice. Becomes exceptional. Try Kroger's Chipolte Lime Chicken breast w/ it. Grill and slice. Serve on top as complete dinner salad.

I thought this recipe was very good. It was fresh and tasty. I took the advice of another reviewer and used black beans instead of kidney beans. Delicious! I will definitely make it again.

This is excellent! Made it for a "Mexican Fiesta" dinner with the British in-laws. I substituted black beans for the kidney beans, and used red pepper as well. Everybody LOVED it. I will definitely make it again! Very fresh-tasting and attractive, and a nice change from traditional mexican side dishes. One thing--this recipe makes A LOT! Thanks for a great recipe!

We loved this salad. I added 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper, and doubled the cilantro for our personal taste. I used yellow and orange peppers because that is what I had on hand. Thank you for a great recipe.

This was a very refreshing, colorful way to serve beans and rice. I used black beans and red pepper (my preference) and it was delicious. I made this a second time using cooked orzo in place of the rice and that was very good, too. You need more dressing, however, if you use orzo. Very nice recipe and I plan on serving it a lot this summer, as it holds well in the refrigerator.

took this to a potluck today. Added chopped tomato and cukes. I thought it was wonderful, but I did come home with lots of leftovers.

Awesome dish!!! I actually didn't need to change anything or add anything to this recipe and it was delicious. If you don't like kidney beans just switch it out for your fav beans. Thanks for the recipe
