[recipe] Black Bean Fiesta Salad

[Guest guest]

This recipe is one of my favorites and can be

made easily vegan by omitting the cheese;

it really doesn't need it, though i do enjoy it

at times. The flavor gets better the longer it

marinates, but usually this salad is gone after

a day here.

 

Black Bean Fiesta Salad

 

1 can (15oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup frozen corn, thawed

1 green pepper, diced

1 sweet red pepper, diced

1 cup diced red onion

2 celery ribs, chopped

3/4 cup cubed Monterey Jack cheese

3 Tbs lemon juice

3 Tbs red wine vinegar

2 Tbs olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 Tbs Italian seasoning

1 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp ground cumin

 

In a large bowl, combine beans, corn, pepper, onion, celery

and cheese. In a jar with a lid, combine the remaining ingredients;

shake well. Pour over vegetable mixture and toss gently. Cover

and chill for 2 hours or overnight.

Yield: 6 servings

PT thanks for this. Do you put corn chips on top??? It would be good as a

tostada opping also. Donna
