Black Beans and Corn Salad



Happy Monday Everyone!!! Hope you had a great weekend. My weekend was great, I slept in and attended my Aunt and Uncle's 25th wedding anniversary dinner (love is a beautiful thing). Chechiz Kitchen of course was in the house. I was asked to make some dishes for the event, which turned out to be a hit. I made pasta and black beans and corn salad for the dinner. Some people who went may wonder why they didn't see the black beans and corn salad. The reason being that the first set of people who tasted it, took the rest home. This dish is great for vegetarians and vegans because it has no meat or dairy products and is fresh. The dish is very easy to make and it doesn't require much effort. I used can corn and black beans but you can use fresh or frozen. Check out the recipe below!!!



Ingredients
 
2 cans of kernel corn
2 cans of black beans
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 orange bell pepper
1 red onions
1 lime
1/2 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of pepper
Spinach



What to do
 
Step 1: Gather all your ingredients
 
 
Step 2: Cut onion, bell pepper, spinach and lime (into two) and set aside



 
Step 3: Open can of corn and black beans and wash with warm water ( It takes away the extra salt)

 
 
 
 
Step 4: Put drained corn and black beans in a bowl and mix together

 
Step 5: Add cut up onion and mix together

Step 6: Add cut up bell pepper and mix together
 

Step 7: Squeeze in half of the lime juice, add salt and pepper to taste and mix together
 

 
Step 8: Add spinach and mix together


 
Step 9: Squeeze in the remaining lime juice, serve and enjoy
