Ingredients
- 1 (15-ounce) can black bean rinsed and drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can kidney bean rinsed and drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans rinsed and drained
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 1 red bell pepper chopped
- 1 (10-ounce) package corn kernels thawed, frozen
Dressing:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice fresh
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt with parsley flakes
- 1 teaspoons cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
Toppings
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped, fresh
- ½ teaspoon chili powder or to taste
- cotija cheese
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add rinsed beans, bell peppers and corn.
- In another bowl, make the dressing by whisking together olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin and black pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the beans, peppers and corn and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
- 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.
