Back Bean and Mango Salad


Tonight, the hubby and I returned home from a wonderful trip to visit family in Dallas. After being away from our kitchen all weekend, we were ready for a super healthy meal! I looked in the fridge and found lots of raw fruits and veggies, along with a very ripe mango. So, I threw together this healthy salad, which we actually ate as tacos on romaine lettuce! It was delicious, and I hope you enjoy it.

Black Bean and Mango Salad

1 can organic black beans, drained and rinsed
1 mango, chopped
1 avocado, diced
8-10 cherry tomatoes, quartered
2-3 celery stalks, thinly sliced
2 romaine lettuce leaves, chopped
1/2 red onion, diced
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 Tbs chopped cilantro (optional)
juice of 1 lemon

Combine all ingredients in large bowl.
Serve over more romaine, either chopped for a salad, or whole for "tacos."
