Corn & Black Bean Salad

July 19, 2016

Without a doubt, this is the easiest recipe I've ever created. Bright & colorful, it's especially delicious served with your favorite Mexican dish. I've also served it with steak, chicken & even ribs. For a terrific lunch or light dinner for #MeatlessMonday, serve it on top of a bed of organic baby greens like a kale/spinach blend or whatever baby greens you like.

This travels well, so it's a great dish to bring to a party, picnic or pot luck. Simply double, triple or quadruple the ingredients & you're all set!

Serves: 4 to 6

Ingredients

1 - 15 oz can gold & white corn, drained & rinsed under cold water (see Tip# 1)

1/2 - 15 oz tub Rojo's Homestyle Salsa, medium heat or use whatever brand or heat you desire (see Tip# 2)

1/4 tsp chipotle chili powder

1/4 tsp kosher or sea salt

Fresh ground black pepper, 12 pepper mill turns

1 Tblsp (packed) roughly chopped fresh cilantro

Optional for serving: sprinkle on a little crumbled goat cheese & top with some roasted piƱon (pine) nuts

5 Cover & refrigerate any leftovers. Best if used up within a couple of days.

Tips & Suggestions

1 If you have any leftover roasted corn on the cob, cut all the kernels off the cob & use that instead of canned corn. You'll need 2 to 3 ears depending on size, about 1 1/2 to 2 cups.

2 Rojo's is a fresh salsa, found in most supermarkets in one of the refrigerated sections.
