Black Bean & Corn Salad

Black Bean and Corn Salad
This is a super-easy recipe that is also super-delicious! We enjoy it regularly at our house, and it usually meets with rave reviews from guests - and is usually devoured at potlucks.

 It is so easy, and requires so few ingredients that it lends itself well to those situations when cooking is difficult or impossible: college dorm cooking, hotel cooking, and military barracks cooking.

I think this with a few lettuce leaves would make a nice filling for a wrap, too!

Black Bean & Corn Salad
Mix all together & enjoy:
2 Cans Black Beans, drained & rinsed (or 3 cups home cooked)
3 Cups frozen Corn, thawed (I rinse mine in a sieve under warm water)*
2 Fresh Tomatoes, Chopped
1/4 cup Lime Juice
3 Tablespoons Taco Seasoning (or add purchased Taco Seasoning to taste - about 1 1/2 pkts)
*Optional ingredients, add any of the following if desired: Diced Avocado, Diced Bell Pepper, Scallions, Fresh Chopped Cilantro (Avocado is our favorite)

*I think that canned corn would also work here for those who like it. It's just not my thing.

    1. It's cool to know that Wildtree makes a Taco Seasoning - ready-made can be quite convenient sometimes : )
