Mexican Style Bean Salad

My mom is coming into town today and after the 4 hour drive from Shawville I'm sure she'll be hungry. I've decided to make one of her favorite meals, a mexican style bean salad. This salad is great in the summer or winter and can be eaten as a meal on its own or as a side. It would go great with burgers or a sandwich. So here it is...

Ingredients

1 can black beans, washed

1 can corn kernels, drained

1/2 medium red onion, diced

1/2 red pepper, diced

1 green onion, sliced

1 tbsp chopped fresh mint

1 tbsp cumin

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tbsp chilli powder

3 tbsp white wine or white balsamic vinegar

1 tsp olive oil

This recipe is so simple and easy, and only takes about 10 minutes to prepare. Combine all ingredients in a glass mixing bowl and stir. Let chill in the fridge for an hour so the beans can absorb the spices (optional). Makes about 4 servings.
