Black Bean & Corn Salad


This is the first time I`ve used lime juice in a salad and I like the results.  This salad wasn`t in my top 10, but it did make me want to experiment further with lime juice.

You will need:
  • 1/3 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen corn kernels
  • 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
  • 1 red pepper, chopped
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1/3 cup sweet onion, chopped
Combine lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt and cayenne pepper and set aside.

In a bowl combine black beans, corn kernels, avocado, red pepper, tomato and sweet onion.

Add dressing and stir.  Serve.
