Black Bean & Corn Salad

1 can black beans, rinsed/drained

2 cups frozen corn kernels

1 red bell pepper, seeded/chopped

1/2 red onion chopped

1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1 lime, juiced

2 tbsp. olive oil

salt~n~pepper

 

COMBINE all ingredients in a bowl. Let stand for 15 minutes (at least) for the corn to fully defrost, toss and serve. If made with frozen corn, it should cause the rest of the ingredients to chill as it defrosts, unless you’re unlucky, then it just won’t.
