1 10-oz Red Bare Beans

1 10-oz Garbanzo Bare Beans

1 10-oz Pinto Bare Beans

1 10-oz Navy Bare Beans

2 large tomatoes chopped (or carton of grape tomatoes quartered)

1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

1 medium red onion, thinly sliced

Juice of 6 freshly squeezed limes

2 large avocados, cubed

1 tub feta crumbles (use as much or as little as you like)
