SWEET & SPICY BLACK BEAN SALAD (OR DIP)
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.

SPICY BLACK BEAN DIP
Consistently eaten by the batchful, this dip is meant to be shared. Super easy & very very tasty - the spiciness depends on how much spice you add. I like to serve this with white tortilla chips and strips of sweet bell peppers (the colors look nice together). This recipe is adapted slightly from Lean & Lovin' It! by Don Mauer.

Tips:
- Use ripe and fresh black beans for the best flavor.
- If you don't have canned black beans, you can cook your own. Just soak 1 cup of dried black beans overnight, then drain and rinse them. Add the beans to a pot with 3 cups of water and a teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about an hour, or until the beans are tender.
- You can adjust the spiciness of the salad by adding more or less chili powder. If you want a milder salad, you can also omit the jalapeño pepper.
- This salad is a great way to use up leftover grilled corn. If you don't have any grilled corn, you can use canned or frozen corn.
- This salad is also a great make-ahead dish. You can make it a day or two in advance and store it in the refrigerator.
- Serve the salad with tortilla chips, crackers, or pita bread.
Conclusion:
This sweet and spicy black bean salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. It is also a great way to use up leftover grilled corn. The salad is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting salad recipe, give this sweet and spicy black bean salad a try!
