NO PICTURE, BUT DANG IT WAS YUMMY

My mother sent me this fabulous cook book and there are some very yummy looking things in it.  I finally got around to trying one and darn I was not disappointed!  My only problem with it was it is so hard to stop eating it!  I'm also putting this on because I think that my sweet Cayden can have it...enjoy

Chicken, Rice and Black Bean Salad

Serves 6

2 T. lime juice

1 T. olive oil

1 T. chili powder (I used just a bit less)

1/2 tsp. cumin (I used closer to 1 T. because I ♡ cumin)

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. sugar

2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast

3 cups hot cooked quick-cooking white rice (I used chicken               broth as my liquid)

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 c. chopped red bell pepper (I used a whole one)

4 green onions, sliced

1/3 c. chopped fresh cilantro (you guessed it, I used more)

Whisk together the lime juice, oil, chili powder, cumin, salt and sugar in a bowl.  All the remaining ingredients and toss to combine and coat with dressing.

You can eat it warm or cold, on a salad or a tortilla.  I'm freezing one portion to see how that goes...I'll let you know.
