Hi–I followed a link from FeelGoodEats to your bog, and I love the recipes/photos here! I just made this salad tonight (after a weekend of birthday revelry featuring, in part, the spiced nuts recipe I found here) and it was fantastic. I could eat the dressing with a spoon, and I loved the texture of the bean cakes. Thanks!

vanessa: Ooh — the tortilla chips are a great idea. And I also contemplated radishes, but my dining companion’s not all that fond of them.

Amy: Thanks! I know what you mean about new entree salads — a constant challenge. But I’m happy to add this one to the rotation.

Rachel: I find that hard to believe! Let me know how you like them if you do give them a try.

Grace: Thanks!

Michelle: Thank you!

jd: Thanks! Let me know how you like them.

Emily: Thank you! You’ll have to let me know how they go. Is Jon getting sick of all the Kristin recipes yet?!?

Wow – your pics are great! So good, in fact, that I definitely shouldn’t be looking at them on an empty stomach

Anyway, I totally agree with you about the “alternative meats” thing – I’m kinda weird about that stuff, too. Veggie “burgers” is about as far as I’ll take it…

So, thanks for the black bean cake salad idea, I can’t wait to try your recipe. Yay!

i’ll eat pretty much anything with black beans, and the dressing sounds really yummy. i love the composition in the top photo.

i’m convinced that i’ll like absolutely anything containing black beans. there would be no question here–these look and sound incredible.

I’ve toyed with making black bean cakes before but I can’t imagine they would look as great as these!

Yum, yum, yum. These look delicious!! These are going directly on my “to cook” list, in fact, I may make them this weekend. I love black beans, and am always looking for new ideas for main-course salads. Thanks for another great recipe! –Amy

these look great! i’ve made something similar to this except i add a mix of bell peppers in addition to the onion and use crushed tortilla chips in place of the bread crumbs. it definitely makes for a good, hearty dinner. the salad that you made with it sounds good too. i think even a simple romaine, avocado and radish mix would go great also with the same dressing. another yummy addition to a great blog!
