                                Ingredients
- 15 ounces canned black beans rinsed and drained
 - 11 ounces canned whole kernel corn drained (recommend: Del Monte Summer Crisp corn)
 - ½ green bell pepper diced
 - ½ red bell pepper diced
 - 2 green onions white and some of the green part, sliced thinly
 - 1 tablespoon minced fresh Italian parsley
 - 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
 - Juice of 1 lime
 - ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
 - ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
 
Instructions
- Drain and rinse the black beans.
 - Drain the whole kernel corn.
 - Dice the bell peppers and green onions and mince the parsley. Toss all the above into a mixing bowl.
 - Add the olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
 - Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours, and up to 24 hours, before serving.
 
Notes
- I highly recommend Del Monte's Summer Crisp corn for this recipe. It's very crisp and gives a nice texture contrast to the beans.
 - It's important to let the salad sit for at least 2 hours so that all the flavors have a chance to blend together.
 - Drain the corn and beans very well to prevent the finished salad from being watery.
 - Storing: This recipe can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It also travels well and can be easily transported to events. Toss well before serving. Not suitable for freezing.
