Black Bean and Corn Salad

Sorry it's been so long, but we have been super busy! Between starting a new job and selling the house in a week, I've been a busy busy girl! I wrote this recipe down for a good friend to make with New Mexican food:

Black Bean and Corn Salad

1 big can of corn
1 big can of Busch's black beans
2 jalapenos
1 stalk of green onion
1 clove garlic
1 jicama
1/4 red onion (if you like raw onion)
1/4 cup cilantro
lime juice
olive oil

Get a pan searing hot and add the drained and rinsed corn and black beans to give them a little char, when done, put in a bowl to cool down
Fine dice the green onions, cilantro, jalapeno, and optional red onion
Mince the garlic
Cut the jicama and dice to size similar to beans and corn
Mix all ingredients with 3:2 ration of olive oil:lime juice (usually 5tbsp evoo to 2 tbsp lime juice)
Add some lime zest to make it a little tangier

Enjoy!
