corn and black bean salad.

This corn and bean salad is one of my favourites. I can’t take credit for it though. It comes from my boss, Sam, who is a vegan. The corn and beans apparently make a complete protein so it’s a good no meat meal. Nick likes to eat it as more of a salsa but it makes a great lunch or light supper for me. Regardless of what diet it fits into, it’s delicious!

{Black beans from a can, rinsed.}

{Corn, canned or blanched frozen.}

{Add chopped tomatoes, chunked avocados (not pictured ’cause we couldn’t find a ripe one) minced shallots and raw garlic, to taste.}

{And the best part, not the avocado, shockingly: cubed mango!}

{Add roughly chopped cilantro and squeeze the juice from a lime or two, to taste. Same for salt and pepper.}
