Ingredients
  

  • 2 (15 oz) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • ½ red onion, finely diced
  • ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Whisk the lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and garlic together in a small bowl until the salt dissolves.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the black beans, corn, bell pepper, red onion, and cilantro.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is coated. Taste and add more salt or lime juice as needed, then serve.

Notes

Let the salad sit for 10 to 15 minutes before serving so the flavors can meld. If adding avocado, fold it in right before serving.
