Introduction
Colorful, fresh salad that pairs well with chicken, beef, fish, as a dip, or in a bowl all on its own. Absolutely addictive and easily altered if you want to sub ingredients or tweak it to your own taste.

Ingredients
-
SALAD:
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 package frozen white shoepeg corn, no sauce, cooked
1 large tomato, diced
1 medium to large bell pepper, color of your choice, diced
1 to large medium red onion, diced
1 jalapeno, diced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup fresh flat leaf Italian parsley
DRESSING:
1/2 cup oil (olive, canola or grapeseed)
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup white distilled vinegar (rice or white wine vinegar fine, too)
1/2 cup Sylvia's Cookin', Dippin', & Moppin' sauce (can sub ketchup)
4 tsp Light Agave sytrup (can sub organic cane sugar)
4 tsp chili powder
2 tsp cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher Salt and Fresh ground pepper, to taste
Directions
In large bowl, combine beans, corn, tomato, peppers, onion, cilantro and parsley.
To make dressing, in a seperate bowl whisk together all dressing ingredients (except the salt and pepper; use this at the end to your taste). Pour dressing mixture over salad then stir to combine all ingredients evenly. Chill at least 1 hour before serving.
NOTE: the dressing components can be altered to however you like it. I usually add more spices like ground chipotle powder and smoked paprika to mine. This is equally delicious over meat as it is on its own. Enjoy!
