Ingredients

• 1 can black beans (14 ounces), rinsed and drained

• 2 cups frozen corn kernels

• 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped

• 1/2 red onion, chopped

• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin (half a palmful)

• 2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Tabasco (eyeball it)

• 1 lime, juiced

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or olive oil (eyeball it)

• Salt and pepper

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Let stand for at least 15 minutes for the corn to fully defrost and the flavors to combine, then toss and serve. The corn will also place a quick-chill on this easy side-salad as it defrosts – no need to refrigerate!
