Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add rinsed beans, bell peppers and corn.
  2. In another bowl, make the dressing by whisking together olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin and black pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the beans, peppers and corn and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
  4. Right before serving, season with chopped cilantro, chili powder and cotija.

Notes

  • Dried beans. Use dried beans instead of canned beans. Soak and then cook them before they are ready to be tossed in the salad.
  • Make ahead of time. This bean salad recipe actually gets better the longer it marinates. Go ahead and toss the salad together up to a day before serving.
  • STORE. Keep leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
