Notes
- I use Pickled Jalapenos because they add flavor to the salad and they are less likely to be super hot. You can also add fresh jalapeno pepper slices (but it's going to be hot!)
- Use canned black beans and corn or dried black beans cooked soft and cooked corn.
- The Mexican Seasoning is optional and can add flavor to your salad.
- Servings are calculated as small portions
