MARINATED BLACK BEAN SALAD



MARINATED BLACK BEAN SALAD image

Categories     Salad     Bean     Side     Freeze/Chill     Kid-Friendly     High Fiber

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (15 oz) cans black beans, drained
9 oz frozen yellow corn
1/4 cup sweet green peppers, raw, diced
1/4 cup sweet red peppers, raw, diced
1/8 cup onions, raw, diced
1 T lemon juice
1 t parsley, dried
½ t cumin, ground
¼ t garlic powder
5 oz salsa
2 t vegetable oil
Monterey Jack cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine black beans, corn, green peppers, red peppers and onions in a large bowl. For dressing, combine the lemon juice, parsley, cumin, garlic powder, salsa and oil. Pour dressing over salad and toss lightly to combine. Refrigerate until service. Optional: sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans: This will give your salad a more interesting flavor and texture. Some good options include black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and chickpeas.
  • Soak your beans: This will help to soften them and make them more digestible. If you're short on time, you can use canned beans. Just be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • Make your own marinade: A simple vinaigrette or lemon-herb dressing is all you need to flavor your bean salad. You can also add other ingredients to your marinade, such as garlic, herbs, or spices.
  • Marinate your beans for at least 30 minutes: This will give the flavors time to penetrate the beans.
  • Add other vegetables to your salad: This will make your salad more colorful and nutritious. Some good options include tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers.
  • Serve your salad immediately or chill it for later: Bean salad is a great make-ahead dish. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Marinated bean salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a variety of beans, vegetables, and dressings to choose from, there are endless possibilities. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing salad, give marinated bean salad a try.
