  • 3 tablespoons chopped red onions

  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes

  • 1/2 tablespoon dry oregano

  • 1/2 tablespoon salt

  • 1/2 tablespoon ground black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar

  • 1 lime


To make the salad:
In a large bowl combine the beans, corn kernels, bell peppers, chopped red onions, diced tomatoes and cilantro, mix together and set aside.


To make the dressing:
In a small bowl mix 2 tablespoons olive oil plus the juice of 1 lime and 1/2 tablespoon of red wine vinegar, add in 1/2 tablespoon salt,  1/2 tablespoon black pepper,  1/2 tablespoon dry oregano and crushed red pepper to taste. Mix well.



Pour the dressing on the salad and mix together. Garnish with avocado and lime wedges. Top with Tortilla strips.
