This is a variation of the recipe by Smitten Kitchen. I have added corn, cilantro and red onions for added flavor. The corn also becomes a complete protein when added to the beans, for my vegetarian husband. Lime wedges make a lovely garnish.
Mix in a large bowl:
2 15-ounce cans black beans, drained and well-rinsed
1 15-ounce can whole corn, drained (or fresh corn off the cob instead would bring a wonderful summer sweetness to it)
4 bell peppers, a mix of colors, chopped into a small dice
1/2 super-large or 1 medium red onion, chopped into a small dice
1/2 bunch of cilantro, finely chopped
Vinaigrette:
In a separate, smaller bowl, whisk:
Juice of two limes
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoon ground cumin
