This black bean salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The longer it sits, the more the flavors of the seasonings and ingredients have to combine. This results in a salad that’s so full of character and makes a quick snack anytime you need it. Keep in mind; you should store it in an airtight container.  Also, if it ever smells strange or you notice that there is mold growing, you should toss it out. It’s never a good idea to eat food once it has begun to spoil.
