Chickpea and Black Bean Salad With Chili Lime Dressing image

I got the concept of this recipe from a Canadian Living magazine, but changed it around a bit....cut the oil and kicked up the seasonings I liked it so much, I was having it for breakfast.

This salad was a disappointment. The dressing was bland and the salad itself was very dry.

I found the dressing to be a bit too spicy for my taste. I'll probably use half the amount of chili powder next time.

This salad is a bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth the effort. The flavors are incredible.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still very flavorful without it.

I wasn't sure how the chili lime dressing would taste, but it was actually really good. It gave the salad a nice kick without being too spicy.

I love that this salad is so versatile. I've added grilled chicken, avocado, and even mango to it before. It's always delicious.
