  2. Mix the pineapple juice and mustard in a large bowl. Place the fish in the mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  3. Combine the tomatoes, avocados, onion, pineapple and 1/4 cup jalapeños in a bowl. Add half the cilantro, the Key lime juice and some salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  4. In a blender, add the black beans, the remaining cilantro, remaining 1/4 cup jalapeños, 1/2 cup olive oil and salt and pepper. Blend until warm; if your blender will not warm it, pour into a saucepan and warm over low heat. Set aside.
