Black Bean and Corn Salad

This is from Holly Clegg's cookbook, Trim and Terrific: Meals on the Move. It's one of my favorite cookbooks. And this is one of my favorite recipes from that cookbook, if not THE favorite. And it is very nutritious to boot.

Black Bean and Corn Salad

1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz.) can whole kernel corn, drained
2 c. coarsely chopped tomatoes
1 bunch green onions, sliced
1 TBSP seeded, and chopped jalapeno ( although I have omitted this and it still is good)
1/3 c. chopped fresh cilantro (or about 1 TBSP of dried)
1/4 c.lime juice
2 TBSP olive oil
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste

In a bowl, combine the black beans, corn, tomatoes, green onions, jalapenos, and cilantro (unless using the dried, add the dried to the dressing). In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, and cumin. Toss dressing with bean mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper. Try with tortilla chips and/or sliced avocado, sooooooooooooo delicious!
