CABBAGE, ZUCCHINI, AND BLACK BEAN SALAD

The guy in charge of food samples at my local Trader Joe's was serving this today. Sounds a little unusual, but it's really good. This guy has a knack for putting things together and coming up with a winner. It was served on wedges of whole grain tortillas. A different vinegar could easily be subtituted if you're not near Trader Joe's
