I used leftover corn and black beans I had in the fridge to throw together this simple layered salad. It's a big time-saver because it requires little chopping and features a quick dressing. The crunchy combination is always in demand at our house. -Kara Ann Goff, Loveland, Colorado

I found that this salad was a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper to taste, and it was much better.

This salad is a bit too spicy for my taste, so I usually reduce the amount of chili powder I use.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, so I usually omit it from this salad. It's still delicious without it.
