This simple black bean side dish works well with Mexican or Latin American meals. Black turtle beans have loads of fibre and are packed with nutrients.

Chunks of onion, tomato and jalapeño chillies add a flavour punch to this popular dip. Low-fat yoghurt and fromage frais lighten the mix and stretch two avocados to feed a horde of hungry dunkers.

Mexican Bean Salad

Recipe by: Pam Garrison

Reviews(2)

This Mexican-inspired salad works well as an addition to wraps, tacos and burritos. It's also good to spoon onto scrambled eggs. Of course, it's great on it's own, too! If you can't find tinned black beans, substitute dried or a tin of borlotti beans.

Mexican beans and fruit

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Earthy, rustic beans are surprisingly good paired with fruit, as in this classic from the Mexican kitchen, where it is called frijoles con frutas. If fruit with beans sounds alarming, just remember that the tomato – an essential ingredient of our familiar baked beans – is also a fruit. This is a high-fibre dish, rich with vitamins.

Tomato Rice

Recipe by: alicarrington

I sometimes add veg and some precooked chicken or sausage for a main meal, but it can be a side dish also. It goes nicely with BBQ/Grilled food, espcially fish, and with a little sour cream on top.

Vegan Refried Beans

Pinto beans are simmered with onions, tomato, chilli powder and vegetable stock, then mashed. It's a quick and easy way to make your own refried beans for any Mexican dish! These taste great in tortillas with avocado, cheese, lettuce, salsa and soured cream.
