This southwestern Fresh Black Bean Salad has an amazing preparation time of just 20 minutes to create a magical medley of spicy and zesty flavors. I have included fresh and canned options for using beans and corn as well as additional optional garnishes if you wish.
We all know everything is better with avocado and crumbled feta cheese. Enjoy this as a well balanced salad, just as is, filled with protein and loads of vitamins and nutrients, or inside of a Mexican burrito, whatever your choice, you’ll love this one.
To make Fresh Black Bean Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large serving bowl, combine the black beans, corn, pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cilantro and jalapeño chilis. and toss to combine.
Toss in the lime zest, lime juice, olive oil, white wine vinegar, chili powder, ground cumin and salt and combine thoroughly well. Depending on your flavor palate, adjust the seasoning to enhance spice, salt or zest.
Cover and allow to chill and marinade in all the flavors, for a minimum of 2
hours.
Serve as is, or with any of the above optional garnishes.
