Description

Black Bean, Corn & Tomato Salad is a simple summer salad with fresh flavors and a spicy avocado lime dressing.

Ingredients

Scale
Black Bean, Corn & Tomato Salad
  • 2 Ears Fresh Corn
  • 1 pt Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1/4 cup Scallions
  • 1 Can Low-Sodium Black Beans (15oz), drained and rinsed
Spicy Avocado Lime Dressing
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Garlic Clove
  • 1/4 cup Basil
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/4 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1 1/3 cups Water
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp Jarred Jalapeño (add up to 1/4 cup for extra spice!)

Instructions

Make the Dressing:
  1. Place all ingredients into a food processor (or blender). Blend until smooth. You may need to add additional water to get the dressing to the consistency you like. Taste the dressing and add additional jalapenos if you like some heat! Using a spatula, scoop the dressing into a mason jar or a container with a lid. Set aside.
Make the Salad:
  1. Prep your veggies. Start with the corn, shuck and rinse each corn cob. Stand the corn cob up on a cutting board and using a knife slice down against the cob, cutting the kernels off. Rotate the cob to cut off the next section of kernels, repeat for both ears of corn then place the corn into a large bowl.
  2. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and place into the mixing bowl with the corn. Peel the cucumber, slice in half lengthwise and using a spoon, remove the seeds. Then half lengthwise into thirds, line up your thirds and cut horizontally making 1/2 inch cuts. Place cucumber into bowl with corn and tomato. Trim the ends off the scallions and then mince and add to your other veggies.
  3. Add the black beans to the corn, tomatoes and cucumber. Mix together with a large spoon. Add 1/4 of the dressing to the salad and mix together. Taste and add additional dressing to your preference. Enjoy!
