My absolute favorite food is Mexican.
But with my "no dairy" and "no corn" issues,
I can't really go out for Mexican food anymore.
So this wonderful salad gives me that taste
that I'm missing without cheese or corn.

2 15oz cans organic black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 large or 1 small jicama, diced into small cubes
2 red bell peppers, diced
