Calico Black Bean Salad image

This salad reflects the Caribbean culture here in South Florida. The combination of black beans, tomatoes and onions with a vinaigrette is great alongside pork or chicken. It's perfect for picnics and convenient, too, since you can make it a day ahead. -Linda Holland, Lantana, Florida

This salad is a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The black beans add a hearty protein boost, while the corn and tomatoes bring a pop of sweetness and acidity. The dressing is perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of tang and spice.
