BLACK BEAN & CORN SALSA SALAD



Black Bean & Corn Salsa Salad image

I took a basic black bean/corn salad recipe and tweaked it to my taste. I hope you'll like it too. My teenagers even loved it and they normally won't touch anything with beans in it. We used it as a salsa with chips and also as a side to our meal of chicken soft tacos. This has a slightly sweet spicy taste. I used a can of mild tomatoes/peppers but if you like heat, then you will probably want to spice it up a bit more. Enjoy!
