Ingredients

  • 1 15oz can of black beans, drained & rinsed
  • 1 15oz can of black eyed peas, drained & rinsed
  • 1/2 medium red onion, diced
  • 1 cup corn about 1 cob of corn
  • 1 roma tomato

Vinaigrette

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  • To start, get your favorite olive oil. The higher quality olive oil the better. Blend the red wine vinegar, olive oil and garlic clove to make a quick vinaigrette.
  • Set to the side while you prep the ingredients. 
  • Remove the kernels of corn from the cob. Above I suggested you roast the corn a little or even toss the cobs over a grill fire, now is the time to do that.
  • Then, drain and rinse the both beans. Chop the cilantro, red onion and tomato.
  • Now, inside a salad bowl or a large bowl add all the ingredients including the vinaigrette you made earlier. Give everything a good mix, then add salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Serve with tortilla chips as a dip.
