I didn't have an old go-to summer salad, but if I did, I'd be replacing it with this one! I made this last night as a side with Salsa Verde Tacos (which were also awesome!) and it was so darn good. I thought it would be great with Mexican food and it was, but it would also be a great bbq item because it isn't a strong flavor; it just tastes fresh and healthy! My kids gobbled it up, too which isn't always the case with a salad.

Black Bean and Corn Salad
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups frozen corn, unthawed (I used Trader Joe's Roasted Corn and it was delish in it!)
1 small red bell pepper, diced
1/2 red onion, diced
2 tsp hot sauce
1 lime, juiced
2 Tbs canola oil
salt and pepper
Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Let sit for at least 20-30 minutes (and it's even better the next day!) for flavors to mix. Corn will thaw as it sits and keep salad nice and cold!

One of my faves! Seriously delish!
I love recipes like this! It reminds me of my "Texas Caviar" recipe. So refreshing!
