t's colorful, delicious, and a snap to throw together. Making it the perfect dish to take to a barbecue or picnic. The best part about this recipe is that it can be made ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator for several days.
The longer this salad sits the more flavorful it gets. I found this recipe filed away in an old recipe folder. From time to time I print off recipes that I want to try and then file them away.
Well, sometimes I forget about them and that is exactly what happened in this case. I am so glad I came across this recipe and finally tried it. I have actually made it twice since finding it because it's that yummy.

Black beans have a nutty flavor with a velvety texture. They also hold their shape really well making them the perfect bean for salads and salsas.
Speaking of salsas not only is this recipe a great salad, but it also makes a wonderful yummy appetizer.
My favorite way to serve this salad is on a pretty chip and dip server surrounded by tortilla and pita chips for dipping.
If you want to turn up the heat a bit try adding a chopped jalapeno or two. My daughter was enjoying this salad with me so I chose not to add it this time.
Black Bean and Corn Salad is pretty to look at as it is good for you. With that being said I hope you will give this recipe a try.
Well everyone it's Potluck Sunday again, so today I will be bringing this yummy black bean and corn salad to our potluck. Do you have a recipe you would like to contribute to the potluck?

Mmm, that's my kind of salad. We've eaten a lot of that kind of thing this summer.

I love anything with black beans and corn together so this a must have recipe for me!
Oh that sounds so good! It's the perfect potluck kind of recipe!
My biggest breakfast dilemma is coming up with something good tasting with protein to keep you going until lunch. We don't always want the eggs, bacon, etc. routine.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this tonight and I think I may love you.
I used to have a recipe very similar to this and lost it. So glad I found your blog! I'm not far from you physically either ~ it's always great to meet a fellow Texan. :-)
I guess I'm your newest follower so will definitely be back!
