Aztec Black Bean Salad (Vegan, Low Fat) image

From fatfreevegan.com. This salad is lovely and can be made ahead. Add or subtract the chipotles to fit your own taste. I have also replaced the cilantro with Italian parsley when served to someone who hates cilantro and it turned out well.

AZTEC GOLD CHILI

One of the great things about chili is all the interesting ingredients that different people put in it. This is a delicious chili that I found in a garage sale cookbook that was falling apart. I saved the recipes that looked good to me and this was one of them. Super good!

AZTEC CHILI SALAD

A different view of chili. Ground turkey or shredded chicken can be used for this recipe instead of chili. Serve on a bed of lettuce with jicama wedges arranged around the sides of the plate. Great for a Ladies Luncheon for something a little different. This can also be served as a "meal-in-inself".
