Put the beans into a large pot and add enough fresh water to cover the
beans by 1 inch. Bring to a simmer over medium high heat, reduce the
heat, cover, and simmer until the beans are barely tender. 1-1/2 to 2
hours (depending on the age of the beans). Thoroughly drain the
beans and let them cool.
Put the lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and cayenne in a small
jar. Cover with the lid and shake until the ingredients are well
mixed.
In a salad bowl, combine the cooked or canned beans, corn, avocado,
bell pepper, tomatoes, green onions, chile pepper, and cilantro.
Shake the Lime Dressing and pour it over the salad. Stir until well
coated. (The salad can be prepared a few hours ahead, but dont add
the avocado until serving time. Refrigerate, and adjust the
seasonings before serving.)
Makes 4 to 5 main-course servings or 8 to 10 side-dish servings.
