SWEET & SPICY BLACK BEAN SALAD (OR DIP)

Sweet & Spicy Black Bean Salad (Or Dip) image

I could honestly eat this for days in a row...nothing else. It's a great combination of sweet corn and black beans and lots of other tasty things! It's worth the bit of mincing and is a great dish to make ahead of time. This can be served as a salad, but I've always made it as an appetizer dip, served with tortilla chips.
