Southwest Salad

  • 2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can corn, drained and rinsed
  • 4 Roma (or any) tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 Bermuda (or any red) onion, chopped
  • 1/2 - 1 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 avocados, peeled and chopped
  • Juice of 1 lemon and 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper
Combine all ingredients. If you're storing overnight, add avocados right before serving.

You can serve this as a main dish or side. You can serve it as a dip with tortilla chips, or on top of rice or white fish, or wrapped in a burrito.

Salad dressing isn't necessary at all, but you can dress it if you like with equal parts olive oil and balsamic vinegar (about 1/3 cup each).
