Best Bean Salsa

2 cups canned black beans, navy beans or combination
drained and rinsed;
If you don't like these beans, use your own favorite
3/4 cup finely chopped (one large) tomato
from your own garden if you can get it
1/2 cup finely chopped (one medium) onion
from Vidalia, of course
1/2 cup finely chopped sweet red pepper, yellow pepper and/or green pepper (two small peppers of the kind you have)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
or 2 tablespoons dried cilantro
or 2 tablesponns dried parsley and 2 teaspoons coriander powder
1 teaspoon finely chopped jalapeno pepper
or 1 tablespoon dried chipotle pepper
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
Combine all ingredients; toss gently. Cover and chill. This gets better with about 4 hours of time for the flavors to mix. Serve with wheat thins, captains wafers, saltines, or preferably toasted tortilla chips (corn or flour). This recipe makes about 4 cups, or enough for 8-12 people as an appetizer.
