Black Bean Salad/Salsa............

This is a salad good pretty much any time of the year, for a light lunch or a great side dish.  It is pretty to look at and it is good for you.  You can pretty much use any ingredients you want that sound good with the beans, because in my opinion, it's all about the dressing.
