Ingredients:
1 Can of corn, rinsed and drained
2 Cans of Black Beans (no salt added), rinsed and drained
1/3-1/2 cup diced red onion
1.5-2 Tb seasoned rice vinegar
1 Tb Olive Oil
1 Tb Lime juice (fresh squeezed!)
1/4 Tsp. Sea salt
1/2 Tsp Ground black pepper
1/2-1 Whole Red pepper, chopped
1/3 cup cilantro, finely chopped
How To:
Take beans, corn, diced onion and red pepper and put them into a strainer. Rinse thoroughly and let sit to dry. In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, rice vinegar, lime juice, salt and pepper. Whisk thoroughly until ingredients are well combined to create a dressing. Then, combine the bean mixture into the dressing. Toss until incorporated. Cover and chill for about 2 hours. Add cilantro before serving. Enjoy!
Tips:
*After adding the cilantro and you serve the dish, if all is not eaten- it keeps well in the fridge for a few days.
*The reason you rinse the red onion is to get rid of the sharp flavor
