This Roasted Corn and Black Bean Salad is like a fiesta in a bowl. Bursting with flavors of roasted corn, black beans, roasted veggies and sweet ripe tomatoes tossed in a tangy lime dressing.

Cinco De Mayo is only a couple of days away. That means yummy Mexican food and Margaritas to celebrate!

I created this salad as a side dish to go along with tacos and other Mexican fare but it can easily be served on it’s own as a light meal.

The salad itself looks like a fiesta in a bowl. And is a light and refreshing change from the more traditional beans and rice.

How to make roasted corn and black bean salad:

I roasted the peppers and onions in this dish to give them a little sweetness and to mellow the onion so that it does not overpower the dish.

Once the peppers and onions are cooled I added them to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Then toss everything in a refreshing lime vinaigrette.

Serve this Roasted Corn and Black Bean Salad with :

• Slow-Cooker Pork Carnitas
