Black Bean and Corn Salad • Two Purple Figs
Make this Black Bean and Corn Salad while corn is still in season! It’s delicious, easy, quick, hearty and so robust with flavors. This crowd pleaser salad is a mix of fresh corn, black bean, jalapeno, avocados, bell peppers, cilantro, red onions and lime! So absolutely robust and packed with flavor 🙂
We make this Black bean salad practically all year long, but we make it much during the summer. That’s because fresh summer corn can’t be beat (،o\xa0Corn Ribs) ! Add to that sweet bell peppers, jalapenos, lots of lime and fresh cilantro, and you’ve got yourself a phenomenal dip.
While you can serve this black bean salad recipe as an appetizer with store bought chips or\xa0Pita Chips, we love it as a side dish too. Serve it alongside\xa0Sheet Pan Fajitas, some\xa0Cilantro Lime Rice\xa0and you’ve got yourself a delicious meal!
Or have it as a side for our famous\xa0Birria Tacos,\xa0Lamb Birria\xa0or\xa0Birria Quesadillas. For a full on party food experience, serve the black bean salad with some\xa0Air Fryer Taquitos\xa0or\xa0Chicken Flautas.
You can also think of it as a good old salad and have it with\xa0Ribeye Steak,\xa0Grilled Trout,\xa0\xa0Chicken Legs,\xa0Grilled Shrimp\xa0and much more!
