4th Of July Fiesta Salad
Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon chilli powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Cayenne to taste
1 small clove garlic, mashed
2 cans whole kernel corn, drained
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 red bell pepper, diced medium
2 roma tomatoes, diced
½ red onion, finely chopped
4 green onions, chopped
3 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
Method
Combine first seven ingredients to make the dressing, add remaining ingredients and toss gently. Let sit for at least four hours before serving.
Short Cut: You can omit the tomatoes, green onions and cilantro and add about three or four tablespoons prepared salsa to the salad. It tastes almost the same.
