Tropical Black Bean Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
    2 tablespoons fresh squeezed orange juice
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    3 cups cooked black beans
    1 red bell pepper, diced
    1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
    1 small green chili pepper, diced
    2 green onions, thinly sliced
    1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
    1 tablespoon chopped of fresh mint
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
    In a bowl, add lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, and garlic; stir to combine.
    Add the beans and toss to coat.
    Add the remaining ingredients; stir to combine.
    Set aside for at least 30 minutes at room temperature so that the flavors can blend.
    Can be put in the refrigerator but I prefer this at room temperature.
    I serve it on a bed of salad greens.
