BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALAD - SPICY MEXICAN SALAD/SIDE DISH



Black Bean and Corn Salad - Spicy Mexican Salad/Side Dish image

A spicy, crisp, fresh vegetable salad. This salad should be made several hours before it is served....to marinate the vegetables and blend the flavors. I personally don't cook the corn I cut from the cobb, just a personal preference. If corn isn't in season a good quality frozen corn is a perfect substitution - I don't even defrost it! The produce you use should be top quality for a superior result.

MEXICAN RICE, BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALAD WITH SALSA VINAIGRETTE image

Categories     Salad     Side     Quick & Easy     Healthy     Simmer

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 6 oz. package Farmhouse® Mexican Rice
One 15.5 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup frozen corn, cooked and cooled
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 cup shredded jack and cheddar cheese blend
Salsa Vinaigrette:
2 Tablespoons lime juice
2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup salad oil
1 tomato, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare rice according to package directions. Let cool. In medium bowl, combine all salsa ingredients and mix well. Combine all remaining ingredients with cooled rice then toss with vinaigrette. Chill for 2 hours before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe corn. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Black beans are a great source of protein and fiber. You can use canned or cooked black beans, or you can cook your own from dried beans.
  • Jalapeños add a bit of spice to the salad. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the jalapeños or use a milder pepper, such as a bell pepper.
  • Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Lime juice adds a bit of acidity and brightness to the salad. You can use fresh lime juice or bottled lime juice.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. The salad will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
