Two Bean Salad

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 can cannellini beans rinsed

1 small red onion, diced

1 - 2 Persian cucumbers, diced

1 - 2 cloves garlic

2 Tbs good quality olive oil

3 Tbs balsamic vinegar

Mix all ingredients together and season with salt and pepper if desired.  Serve alone or over brown rice.

Note:  My friend Darlene serves this with red kidney beans in place of the cannellini beans.  Another friends makes it with garbanzo beans and tosses in sun dried tomatoes.  I'd love to hear your version if you make it too!
