Red Bean, Corn and Bell Pepper Salad image

This is Tex-Mex in all it's glory! This is great for picnics,great for pot lucks, brunches, just anything! Feel free to use any bean you like, white kidney or black-eye peas(New Year's Day). I hope you will enjoy this, as I do.If you are short on time, use canned beans, just rinse well; same as the corn,use frozen over canned. *Vinaigrette follows*. You may use your favorite nacho chips, rather than broiling the corn tortillas.Make a bouquet garni by putting 5-6 parsley stems, 2-3sprigs fresh thyme and 1 bay leaf together with a piece of kitchen string. For the best taste, chill at least 1 hour. Soaking time not included. Times are approx.

ARUGULA AND CORN SALAD WITH ROASTED RED PEPPERS AND WHITE BEANS



Arugula and Corn Salad With Roasted Red Peppers and White Beans image

Canned beans can also be used in this composed salad with a base of sweet corn and pungent arugula. Since you don't need a broth for this composed salad, canned beans will work, though I always prefer the flavor of beans I've cooked myself. I like to use a white bean, either a cannellini or a navy bean. I've always loved sweet corn with pungent arugula. I combine the two for a salad bed, which I top with the roasted peppers and beans. So the dish is really two salads, one on top of the other.

BLACK BEAN, CORN AND RED PEPPER SALAD WITH CHILE-LIME DRESSING



Black Bean, Corn and Red Pepper Salad With Chile-Lime Dressing image

This recipe was in the Seattle Times August 20, 2008. It's different from other black bean and corn salads I think because of the lime juice. When I made it, I used only one can of beans and that was plenty for us. I also used garlic salt instead of regular salt. This is a very good and refreshing salad that goes well with Mexican food. I think it would also be good with a couple of fresh, seeded, and minced jalapenos added.
