Best Southwestern Corn And Black Bean Salad Recipe By Paula Deen Recipes

SOUTHWEST BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine beans, corn, pepper, tomatoes, onion, and cilantro, and gently toss.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, sea salt, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
• Pour dressing over beans mixture and gently toss to combine well and coat all of the bean salad ingredients.
• Gently fold in diced avocado just until well dispersed. If avocado is too soft and fragile, you can also just place the avocado on top of individual portions. If you have some extra time, this black bean salad recipe is best prepared a few hours before servings so that you can chill it in the refrigerator (for at least an hour) to allow all those great Southwest flavors to mingle and fully develop.
