Black Bean & Corn Salad

My cousin Jenn was visiting for the weekend and made this salad

I’m not sure how something so simple could be this tasty!

A few fresh ingredients brought together by a light citrus vinaigrette

Let’s start with the corn.  If using corn on the cob, remove the kernels and if using frozen, thaw

Drain and rinse a can of black beans and add to a large mixing bowl.  Finely dice 1/2 red onion, 1/2 of the red pepper and the whole jalapeno.  You can remove the seeds from the jalapeno to lessen the heat

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and add all of the ingredients to the bowl

Mix well and let meld for about an hour in the fridge
