SWEET CORN AND BLACK BEAN SALAD
This is an incredibly delicious version of a black bean and corn salad that is low in cal/fat and contains fiber and protein. The black pepper and lime juice really finish it off. This recipe actually came from Whole Foods but was tasty enough to take the time to post it here! This is definitely best served cold with raw ingredients.

SWEET CORN AND BLACK BEAN SALAD
The original recipe I found on epicurious many years ago but it used black eyed peas which I don't like. It was also labeled a salsa which I suppose would be good as well but my favorite way to eat this is as a salad for lunch. I like big servings of veggies so this usually lasts me two lunches but served as a side dish I suppose it could easily serve 4.
