easy-black-bean-salad

Dressed with cilantro, lime juice and zest, and balsamic vinegar, this easy black bean, tomato, and corn salad will keep you powered up for hours. As co-creators Ann and Jane Esselstyn write, "We could eat this black bean salad for every meal in summer, even breakfast."

Ingredient

Two 16-ounce cans black beans drained and rinsed WELL!
1 very large tomato, chopped
1 package frozen corn
½ Vidalia onion, chopped
1 can sliced water chestnuts, drained and rinsed
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
½ lime, juice and zest
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or more to taste

Direction

Add beans, tomatoes, corn, onion, and water chestnuts to a bowl (glass looks pretty) and mix. Rinsing the beans well keeps the salad from looking gray.
Add cilantro, lime, and balsamic vinegar and mix again. Serve alone or with cucumber open-faced sandwiches for a perfect meal.
