In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lime
juice, lemon juice, sugar, salt, garlic, cilantro, cumin, and black

Pour olive oil dressing over vegetables; mix well. Chill thoroughly, and serve cold.
Side note: we usually skip the onions if we are making this for a crowd. we've also substituded different types of beans for variety and canned or fresh corn for frozen. I would recommend tasting the dressing and adding a this or that to make it your own. Enjoy!
