Recipe Fridays: Black Bean and Corn Salad

This salad is a flavorful summer salad that is a great addition to BBQs and fiesta dinner parties. The other great thing about this? The easy preperation!

1 1/2 cups frozen corn kernals
2 cans of black beans, rinsed and drained
2 tomatoes, chopped
5-6 green onions, chopped
1 avacado, peeled and chopped
About 1/2 cup cilantro, washed and chopped

Dressing:
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

Make the dressing in a small jar or bowl. Shake it to mix all of the ingredients together. Let it sit while you put the salad together in a larger bowl. Once you have combined all the salad ingredients, pour the dressing over; mix well. Serve immediately, or chilled.
