I made this at the family reunion and it was a big hit.
Combine:
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can corn, drained
tomatoes, green peppers, gr. onion, avocado, etc. (whatever you like in your salad)
Add dressing and chill for at least an hour. Serve over a bed of lettuce or baby spinach. Top with crushed tortilla chips and cheese. (At the reunion, I also added sliced grilled chicken breast. You could also use rotisserie chicken from the deli. I have also simmered chicken breasts with a package of taco seasoning mix til tender and then shredded them.)
Dressing
1/3 c. olive oil
2 TBS lime juice
1 TBS red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp oregano (can substitute cilantro)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp pepper
You could also use this as a salsa, if you don't want to make the salad.
