Salad

2 Roma tomatoes ($0.86)
1 jalapeño ($0.12)
1/4 red onion ($0.20)
1/4 bunch fresh cilantro ($0.20)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 2 Tbsp of juice from the lime, balsamic vinegar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and sugar.
Rinse and drain both cans of beans in a colander. Once well drained, transfer them to a large bowl.
Finely dice the bell pepper, tomatoes, jalapeño, and red onion. Try to dice the vegetables into pieces that are roughly the same size as the beans. For a less spicy salad, scrape the seeds out of the jalapeño before dicing. Roughly chop the cilantro.
Add the chopped vegetables to the bowl with the beans.
Pour the dressing over the salad, then stir until everything is well coated. Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to eat.
