I saw this photo on Amazon. I was looking at low sodium beans, and this image looked delicious. I asked Gemini (AI) to list the ingredients, and it added the possible dressing ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • Beans:
    • Black beans (likely canned, rinsed and drained)
    • Kidney beans (likely canned, rinsed and drained)
    • Chickpeas (garbanzo beans, likely canned, rinsed and drained)
  • Vegetables & Aromatics:
    • Corn (kernels, possibly fresh, canned, or frozen and thawed)
    • Red onion (thinly sliced or finely diced)
    • Red bell pepper (diced or thinly sliced)
    • Avocado (diced)
    • Cilantro (fresh, chopped)
  • Possible Dressing Ingredients (implied by a salad):
    • Lime juice (for acidity and flavor)
    • Olive oil
    • Salt
    • Black pepper
    • Cumin (ground)
    • Chili powder (optional, for a Mexican flair)
    • Garlic (minced, optional)

*As two additional options, I might try vinegar instead of lime juice, and also add sweetener.
