Fruited Black Bean Salad

I made this salad for a work picnic and it was a huge hit! There are so many different flavors that you wouldn't expect to blend well, but they do. It's like a party in your mouth.

Original recipe here

1 can black beans, rinsed
1/2 cup chopped mango
1/3 cup chopped sweet onion
1/2 cup chopped strawberries
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp salsa verde (unless you like it spicy, get a mild kind)
1/4 tsp cumin
dash of salt

Mix all the ingredients together and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Note: this is delicious the first day but disgusting the next day (the strawberries absorb all the other flavors and get kind of fermented in onion and salsa verde). I highly recommend consuming all of it the first day and not keeping any for leftovers.
