Very easy to make and had great flavor. I added a little more lime juice and found that once it marinated a few minutes, the flavor was much better!

I made this on Saturday and Monday. Even my picky 9 year old liked it. Since I didn’t have scallons, I added shallots which tasted great. JUST A NOTE: Don’t substitute lemon for lime. On Monday I thought I ran out of lime so I used lemon. I also used white beans instead of pinto beans. When I tasted it, it didn’t taste the same like when I made it on Saturday. It was bland. The white beans didn’t give it enough favor and the lemon was tart. So I decided to look into my refrigerator to see how I can help this salad and I found half a lime. And I also found a can of pinto beans in my pantry. Hurray! So I added pinto beans with the white beans and added the lime juice. What a difference! I found the favor I was looking for.

Delicious and very simple. I doubled the recipe and ended up with too much liquid, so next time I’ll just use 1.5x the liquid with double the other ingredients. We also thought it could use some crunch and will add chopped celery when making it again.

Very good! I don’t recommend adding any garlic, even if you love it. I did and it was a bit overpowering but still great tasting combo of flavors and easy to make
