~Mexican Black Bean & Corn Salad~



This is one of those recipes you can experiment and have fun with.. depending on what's in the frig I will sometimes throw in fresh avocado and/or jalapeno's... we like it hot and spicy :) You can serve it with anything from fajitas to grilled chicken or pork...  



Time 15 min / Makes 6 Servings

What you need: 
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 small red onion, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 can (19 oz.) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (11 oz.) whole kernel corn, drained
2 Tbsp. lime juice
1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro (optional)
 In nonstick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and
cook onion, red pepper, garlic and cumin, stirring occasionally, (about 3 minutes) or until vegetables are tender. 

In serving bowl, combine vegetable mixture with remaining ingredients. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled.
