2 15-oz. cans black beans, drained
1 sweet onion, chopped finely
1 cucumber peeled, seeded and chopped finely
3/4 cup ripe olives, pitted and rough chopped
1 fresh tomato, chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
3 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/2 Tbsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. fresh ground pepper

Combine first 6 ingredients. Combine olive oil, vinegar, mustard and salt and pepper and pour over bean mixture. Mix well and allow to sit for at least 3 hours before serving to allow flavors to blend.
