The ingredients for Colorful Corn and Black Bean Salad are:

1 can of black beans, drained
1 can of corn, drained
2 stalks of celery, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 red pepper, chopped
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 Tbsp. canola oil
2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
1 tsp. Lawry's Seasoned Salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Here is how you make Colorful Corn and Black Bean Salad:

Mix all ingredients together, cover and refrigerate. That's it! This salad improves upon sitting. It can be served in lettuce cups, on top of salad (especially good on a salad made with leftover steak!), as a dip, or just wrapped inside a corn tortilla, with a bit of cheese and some salsa, for a quick lunch. This makes about 4 cups, or eight 1/2 cup servings.Variations: I like to use a roasted, chopped poblano in place of the regular green pepper. Other peppers (banana, jalapeno, etc.) can also be substituted according to your taste. Corn roasted on the grill would be great, too. If you can find jicama, that also adds a nice crunch. Enjoy!
