This is very good. I did leave out the sugar, and I added a fresh jalapeno, since I had some in the fridge. I created a little bit more dressing, so I could pour it over my lettuce, as I used this to top a salad.

Made this and did not add any sugar. Doubled it and used a can of kidney beans and a can of black beans. Didn't have red onion so I used yellow instead. Very good!

This was delicious! We ate it as a salad tonight for dinner, but next time I think we'll keep it as a side and serve beside some herb crusted salmon or tilapia! We left out the olive oil and vinegar and served.

I used salsa instead of tomato as recommended by others & it was great! The only problem is I couldn't just eat one serving (good thing it's low in calories)!

Wonderful mix of flavors. I didn't have a 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes, so I used salsa. Also, I used dried cilantro which worked out okay. I could see how fresh cilantro would make this even more wonderful.
