What’s Cookin’ Wednesday: Spicy Black Bean Salad

Black beans are one of my husband’s favorite foods, and when I told him I was going to serve him Spicy Black Bean Salad, he was ecstatic, sight unseen!

After supper he was even happier. Spicy Black Bean Salad was a definite hit at our dinner table.

Ingredients:

2 16-ounce cans black beans, drained and rinsed (always rinse canned beans!)

1 green pepper, cut into thin strips

1 red pepper, cut into thin strips

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 large onion, chopped

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/2 cup of pretty much any kind of Texas Pepper Jelly product! I divided the salad into four parts tonight and used Apple Cherry Rib Candy, Pineapple Habanero, Berry Medley Habanero, and Raspberry Habanero, each flavor on its own batch of salad. Tim ate most of each batch, and said it was impossible to choose a favorite because they were all delicious.

I liked the batch with Rib Candy best, and both kids liked the Pineapple Habanero batch best.

In other words, Spicy Black Bean Salad was a big hit here. Why don’t you try it and let us know what your family thinks?
