Ingredients

1 can 15 ounces [or roughly 425g] black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup or 240g sweet corn, drained
1 red bell pepper diced to perfection
½ cup [or 20g] fresh cilantro finely chopped
Juice of 1 lime
½ of a red onion chopped just right [or around 75g]
2 tablespoons [or 30ml] olive oil
A teaspoon [or about 5g] of chili powder
A pinch ½ teaspoon [or 2.5g], of cumin
Salt and pepper sprinkle to your heart’s content

Method

Start with those black beans. Get them in a bowl, ready to mingle.
Toss in that sweet corn.
Up next, those vibrant diced red bell peppers and the finely chopped red onion.
Cilantro? Yes, please! Get it in there.
Squeeze out every drop of that lime. Zest is best!
A gracious drizzle of olive oil is essential.
Spice it up with chili powder and cumin.
A sprinkle of salt, a dash of pepper, and you’re golden.
Mix everything with love, letting each ingredient get acquainted.
Patience! Let it sit for about 10 minutes. Trust me, it’s worth the wait.

Notes

Got an avocado? Half of it, diced, would blend in like a charm.
For those who enjoy a little fire, throw in a chopped jalapeño.
Fresh cilantro is the secret weapon. Always!
If you’ve got some time on your hands, let it chill in the fridge for an hour.
