													This Black Bean and Corn Salad is the perfect make-ahead side since it's served cold and requires NO cooking! It's vegetarian and vegan friendly, and literally all you do is mix some stuff in a bowl and call it a day. Serve as a side, on top of greens as a main course salad, or use as a salsa with tortilla chips!
