Crazy good Bean & Rice "Salad"

9/7/2015

In an effort to continue to battle the excess baby weight I have been carrying I have been really trying to keep to a healthy low calorie diet.  However, lunches seem to be the most difficult meal for me as I am usually running around like crazy and I often let myself get too hungry before making something healthy and therefore I begin stuffing my face because I am too hungry.

Recently a friend shared this recipe with me and it has become my new go-to favorite for lunches.  It is super low calorie, filling AND delicious...what more could you ask for?  I love to eat it on tortilla chips or even just plain with a spoon...enjoy!

Ingredients: (my pic is missing the corn & diced tomatoes)
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cucumber (diced)
1 onion (diced)
1 cup cooked rice
1 cup fresh or frozen corn
1 can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup spicy salsa
salt and pepper to taste
optional...a few squeezes of fresh lime juice

So that's it!  You just mix the above ingredients together and let stand in fridge for a few hours before serving.  I have been making up a batch and eating it for a whole week at a time, fast, easy and delicious!
